[quote=Anonymous]What are the job prospects for someone graduating the law school at University of Maryland at age 40 and looking to get into government or in-house legal work? Prior experience is all in PE/hedge fund. Do you have to basically start over? Is a 200k salary working 40 hours/week realistic? DH really wants to make this switch because he can't find a 40 hour/week job in investing (government, nonprofit, or private sector), and his heart isn't in finance anymore, and he's always been interested in doing legal work. He worked closely with lawyers on the legal aspects of deals and feels like legal work is a good fit for him. We do not have a ton of savings, I'm in a low paid field, but we wouldn't go into debt for this degree. I want to be supportive but just not sure if he will be able to get the kind of job he wants.
