I m going to disagree with one of the previous answers, based on the fact you re a corporate lawyer. Unless you re using that phrase in some manner with which I m entirely unacquainted, that means you are *not* a litigator. That - plus your relatively advanced seniority - will make it unlikely that you can get a job in a prosecutor s office. The most likely job in your field would be doing business-type things (contracting, etc.), which might be in the state attorney general s office, maybe a city attorney or perhaps a federal agency. The problem with these jobs is that they re fairly quot;civil-service-ish,quot; which means they don t pay very well, and they re going to consider you hugely over-qualified. The best course for finding something commensurate with your experience and level of expertise would be to use (or make) the political connections necessary for a higher-level political appointment. It still won t pay all that well, but it would at least use your skills, be somewhat interesting, and has the potential to move your career forward instead of backward.
Possibly a deputy attorney general, deputy district attorney, or assistant US attorney handling the white collar crimes dealing with corporate law or an assistant US attorney. You may have to deal with a pay cut because I think those jobs cap out at $100K - $150K, depending on location.
Look into the Attorney General s office and Department of Financial Institutions.
