She left full-time practice in 1984 and, during the next five years, did contract legal work for other lawyers. In 1985 she started Lawyers in Transition in San Francisco to help attorneys obtain satisfying career choices in and outside of law and assist law firms and corporations in retaining the best attorneys.
