"After the Tipping Point" is panel discussion with Caroline Hall, Cassandra Pillonel, and Jeana Patel, and moderated by Rachel Seshan. This CLE explores the journeys of seasoned litigators who reached a personal and professional tipping point in their careers, leading them to pivot into law-adjacent positions.

In this insightful presentation, each speaker will share their unique story of transition, detailing the challenges they faced and the steps they took to redefine their careers. Despite stepping away from traditional litigation, they remain active in the legal community, contributing in new ways and offering valuable perspectives. The session will provide practical advice on how attendees can apply these lessons to their own careers, with actionable steps for navigating your own path of reinvention and growth.

If you're considering a transition in your career, this will be a very insightful CLE. Everyone reaches a tipping point in their life, but you don't always get a guide on what to do next.
