The Proven Roadmap to Leave Law, Find Work You Love, and Get Paid What You’re Worth

 

When I started doing the Leave Law Behind program, all my questions started getting answered. Adam and Casey have already done the work and identified all of the "non-law" jobs that are out there for me. They have this great term I love so much, the Unique Genius, which really helped me hone in on what I wanted to do. Also the work they provide about our perspective on money helped me a lot, to set my intentions and believe in myself.

What is Your Unique Genius, and Why It Matters

Your Unique Genius is the combination of skills, strengths, and traits that come naturally to you, the things you do so well that you often overlook their value.

 

At Leave Law Behind, discovering your Unique Genius is the cornerstone of the process, because it helps you finally see how much you have to offer outside the law. Instead of forcing yourself to fit into a role that drains you, you learn to align your career with what energizes you and where you truly excel. 

 

Once you see this clearly, every step forward … from identifying non-law jobs to networking, refining your resume, and interviewing … becomes easier and more focused. It’s the “scouting report” of your career, showing you and potential employers the real value you bring.

I was anxious about leaving the security of the law behind, but now I earn even more money than I did as a lawyer. My "lawyer" skills have been a perfect fit for these "non-law' jobs - I've been promoted three times and my career growth upside seems limitless... On top of that, I am a much happier, calmer and motivated person. I even look forward to work on Mondays!

We Understand Your Fears About Leaving the Law

If you’re thinking about leaving law, chances are your own inner voice is the loudest obstacle. Maybe it’s telling you:
 

“I’ll disappoint my parents.”
“I might burn bridges if I walk away.”
“What if I run out of money?”
“What if I regret this and can’t go back?”


Sound familiar? You’re not alone. Every lawyer we’ve coached has wrestled with these same fears.
That’s why we created a short 12-part video series to help you move past them. Each video tackles one of the most common blockers unhappy lawyers face, and shows you how to reframe it so you can take your next step forward with confidence.
 

You can watch the full series straight through, or just pick the video that speaks most to the challenge you’re facing right now.

I’d been unhappy in law for years but didn’t know how to make a change. After over 20 years litigating, I knew I had to do something for my mental health.  I attended a local bar association zoom "luncheon" during the pandemic, and finally found my answer.  The Leave Law Behind program walked me through every step of the process with compassion and precision. It helped me identify my unique skills and match them to a career I’m now thriving in. Casey’s support was instrumental. I can’t recommend this program enough.

Donna Follmer

Director of Compliance

Let’s be honest. There are a lot of courses that promise a new life. Here is why this program consistently helps lawyers actually change theirs:
 

Proven process designed for lawyers
Most “career change” advice ignores the realities of our profession. We built a step-by-step system specifically for attorneys who want clarity, confidence, and a practical path into real roles.
 

Unique Genius first, job boards second
We do not start with random applications. We start with you. We uncover your Unique Genius and map it to specific non-law roles so you can finally feel aligned and in your zone.
 

Transferable skills translation
You already have the skills. We help you translate them into plain English that hiring managers outside the law instantly understand.
 

Coaching and community
Live coaching, feedback, accountability, and a supportive community that gets it. You will never be alone on this path.
 

Real success stories, real momentum
From compliance and operations to client success, strategy, product, and beyond, lawyers in this program land roles that fit. You are next.

In 2021, Leave Law Behind helped me step out of real estate law and into a career I love. The coaching program was clear, supportive, and designed to help me succeed at every step. The program was well-designed and walked me through each step clearly, and Casey was always there to provide support and encouragement.  I’m now a Trust Officer at a bank where I get to use my transferable skills from practicing law in a way that energizes me - complex problem solving, risk management, and helping people navigate complex situations. It’s the best career decision I’ve ever made.

I'm making more money in this new role than in my average years, I've matched my highest years' earnings! I worked through the program, watched the live feeds, and soaked up as much information as possible. I also used their resume bank and sample cover letters to help me develop mine. I would not have been able to prepare my resume, cover letter, or kill the interviews without the training I received from LLB. I was able to confidently convey my years of experience in a way that showed my value to the firm and not just another litigator.

A Personal Note From Casey

When I first left the law, I was terrified.
 

I had invested years of my life in law school and practice. I had a steady paycheck, a title that impressed people at parties, and a career path that looked “safe” from the outside. But on the inside, I was exhausted, unhappy, and quietly asking myself, “Is this really it? Am I supposed to do this for another 20 or 30 years?”
 

The day I walked away, I didn’t have every answer lined up. But I did have a deep knowing: staying in the law was costing me my health, my happiness, and my sense of purpose. And I knew there had to be another way.
 

That choice changed everything. Since then, I’ve built a career and a life that actually fit me. And along the way, I’ve had the honor of helping hundreds of other lawyers do the same.
 

Here’s the truth: you don’t have to have it all figured out today. You don’t need a five-year plan or a brand-new degree. All you need is the willingness to take the first step, to admit you’re ready for something better, and to let yourself be guided toward it.
 

That’s why we built Leave Law Behind. To give you a proven roadmap. To help you see your transferable skills clearly. To show you careers that actually excite you. And to be the voice of encouragement when your fears get loud.
 

If you’ve read this far, you’re not here by accident. You’re here because a part of you already knows it’s time.
 

So let’s do this together. Take the next step. Try Libra, join a Blueprint call, or dive into the Leave Law Behind program. 

 

Whatever feels right for you, just don’t stay stuck another year.
 

You deserve more than survival. You deserve a career, and a life, you love, are good at, and that pays you well.
 

With gratitude and belief in you,
Casey Berman
