JD Careers Out There is a membership site for lawyers, law students, and potential law students who want to have a career they love. As a career coach at JD Careers Out There, Marc helps unfulfilled lawyers across the US get unstuck and figure out their next career move — whether that’s leaving law or staying in the profession. 

There was a time when Marc felt unsatisfied in his legal career and wanted to shift to a more creative, fulfilling approach. Now, he’s helping others do the same by exploring the possibilities that can transform a career path. Using a three-step formula for career fulfillment, Marc helps navigate the challenges and frustrations that many people are facing in the legal field today. He helps them explore whether it’s a time to move on, pivot, or stay the course in their careers.

In this episode…

Sometimes, the law industry can be ruthless. Many lawyers are burned out with the lack of feedback, the rush of the billable hour, and the thankless work that never seems to end. Instead, lawyers want more collaborative work that they can be confident in, and they want their company to invest in them. But how do you know which company will fulfill these wishes? Can you still find happiness in the law industry? 

This is where Marc Luber comes in. He has crossed paths with many unhappy lawyers and helped them explore their options, market themselves, and land a career they love. This can be a frightening process for lawyers, but it will ultimately help you attain a fulfilling career and move towards the future you envision.

In this episode of The Lawyer’s Edge Podcast, Elise Holtzman sits down with Marc Luber, the Founder of JD Careers Out There and the JD Refugee coaching program. Together, they discuss why many lawyers feel unsatisfied in their work, the value of exploring a career change, and Marc’s process for helping clients find the right role. Plus, Marc provides a special self-assessment questionnaire to help you figure out the right path!
