“The new edition
of Deborah Arron’s ‘What Can You Do With a Law Degree’ is
yet another improvement to what is already the classic text for lawyers
who are questioning their career choices. – a Boston law career counselor
“When I decided to leave my practice, I used Deborah Arron's
book to decide what career to pursue. As soon as I started reading,
I instantly felt that – as a lawyer herself – she understood
exactly what I was going through. Her self-assessment exercises brought
me a lot of clarity, and helped me decide what career to pursue.” – an

Back in the 1990s, Seattle lawyer Deborah Arron was the first to break the
profession’s code of silence with a book about lawyer unhappiness – Running
From the Law: Why Good Lawyers Are Getting Out of the Legal Profession. Soon
after its publication, the book was given imprimatur of success by the ABA
Journal and Time Magazine. Two years later, Arron, by then a successful author
and national public speaker, followed with another hit – What Can
You Do With a Law Degree? – and then a third book about free-agent lawyering
(The Complete Guide to Contract Lawyering). Deborah has more than 100,000 law
career books in print, and we’re happy to announce that new editions
of all three books are now available. In addition, we invite you to read – and
download – all of Arron’s original Career Tips for Lawyers.
