I was disillusioned to discover practicing law wasn't what I thought it would be. I also have an education degree, so I have tried to get back into teaching, which I enjoy. However, I'm getting rejections because of the law degree [reasoning: you must not be a very committed teacher to have gotten a law degree!]. What jobs are available to someone who doesn't want to practice traditional law, but would still like a decent income?

Well, most politicians have law degrees. Perhaps you could work for an organization that litigates on behalf of issues you support. No matter where you stand on any issue, there is probably such an organization you agree with. Maybe you could teach law. That would use both degrees.

1. don't tell them about the law degree ?
2. But remember many lawyers don't first pass the bar and end up into business, There are many jobs in corporations that use attorneys in business.
