Starting from Scratch at Prudential: Taking Up a New Practice Area as an In-House Counsel Mid-Career

Register Here

Most attorneys start their career believing that the first legal practice they choose will be their lifelong practice. Out of law school we work hard, oftentimes for years, to develop our specialty and become the subject matter expert. Until one day... you realize you need new skills to advance...or your boss asks you to switch practice areas...or you just feel it' s time to move onto something different. How do you make such a move? How do you leverage your experiences while picking up new skills? How do you re-position yourself to become the subject matter expert in a new field? For in-house attorneys, starting from scratch is essential in career advancement, especially in large companies with multiple lines of businesses. Attorneys from Prudential Financial who have made such striking transitions (from regulatory law to digital, military law to international, and insurance law to asset management) will share their experiences on how they started from scratch to build a new career.
