[quote=Anonymous]I wish I had suggestions for career-change/non-practicing jobs for you, and maybe me. But in the meantime, and in addition to the suggestions of PP's re: self-esteem, depression, etc. I would say -- are you good at taking tests? If you move, would you have the ability to study for a Bar (i.e., are your kids in school or could you put them in part-time care for a few hours a day)? I recently took the Maryland practitioner's bar after moving here from NY after 10 years of practice. I was really dreading it, but it turned out not to be that bad and I actually learned a lot of useful things about Maryland practice. I also think it was easier than taking the bar the first time around because everything had context now -- where 10 years ago everything was abstract, now I could see how it all fit together. I did have my son in daycare and spent a few hours a day doing contract work and a few hours studying. We are thinking of moving, again, too, and are considering states in which I might have to take another bar, even if I'd have to take the full exam, as long as I can have some free time to study during the day.[/quote]
