Abstract
Recently, I made the work status change from practicing corporate attorney (thirty years’ worth) to full-time law professor. This article offers a series of tips for practitioners considering such a transition based on my experiences, in the hope that the lessons I learned (some of them painfully) can ease your pain, or dissuade you from such foolishness. While my target audience is the “seasoned” practitioner (older, that is, not to put too fine a point on it), these tips should be useful or of interest to more junior practicing lawyers looking to make a move to teaching. And I hope all who read it will be entertained.
