On the Move: Navigating Employment Transitions in the Legal Profession

Change is inevitable at some point in your legal career. Whether you are moving to a new firm, going in-house, exploring law-adjacent roles, or leaving the legal world altogether, employment transitions can be both exciting and daunting.

Whatever your individual experience, this session offers valuable insights for every legal professional throughout the transition process.

This practical seminar is designed for those who want to feel more confident about managing their firm’s finances. Whether you are just starting out or looking to improve your existing systems, the goal is to walk away with clear, actionable knowledge tailored to the legal profession and hopefully lessen the stress that often accompanies the business side of practicing law. This free live webinar will be held on Wednesday, July 23, 2025, from 12:00 to 1:00 p.m.
