[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Maybe surprising but I believe law is very ageist[/quote] +1 I know lots of people struggling, particularly in specialties that don't translate to other formats.Once you are "too skilled," there are fewer top jobs, so it's hard to get them. And no one wants to hire a former partner-level person for a lower level job because they know/believe they will be unhappy in it. And it is hard to switch from firm to in house because you have no in house experience, and vice versa. There are always exceptions, but the majority of 40-70yo lawyers looking for jobs are going to have a hard time. [/quote]
