Are you thinking outside the box about your legal career?

For generations of lawyers, the standard, desired career trajectory was: attend the best law school you can, and then work for the best law firm you can before either becoming a law firm partner or going in-house. Like many other paradigms of the legal profession, consider this model disrupted.

Here at Bloomberg Industry Group, we’re pushing the boundaries on innovation and building the tools and intel that shape the legal industry. Consider an alternative career in one of the many roles available to those with law degrees or legal experience.

A few ways our employees use their law degrees

Amanda Allen

Amanda Allen

After her bar exam, Amanda Allen was an editor at Congressional Quarterly. After eight years at CQ, Amanda joined Bloomberg Law. “I was never really enticed by the idea of leaving editorial work for practice. But not wanting to practice didn’t mean I tossed aside my legal education.” She has been a legal editor for Bloomberg Law and is now Team Lead – Government Contracting Analysis at Bloomberg Government.

Miguel Villarreal

After seven years as a litigation associate in a large New York City law firm, Miguel Villarreal had burned out. He joined Bloomberg Law, as he did enjoy legal writing. Miguel now works with a team of engineers to create legal software products. “Legal tech is still growing quickly, so the next decade of growth in the legal sector may be outside of the traditional firm framework.”
