His first job out of law school wasn't glamorous, but the steady pay and hands-on litigation experience made up for a lack of health insurance and low hourly wages. But over time, he wanted a better standard of living and work-life balance. After going solo and finding it impossible to manage his average-size debt load, he decided to become a high school special education teacher and practice law on the side. This episode also offers a window into the economics of small law firms, the trade-offs that clients face when they cannot afford a lawyer, and how people juggle and evaluate life priorities. Jaye is a graduate of Southern Illinois University School of Law.","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300,"thumbnail_url":"https:\/\/artwork.captivate.fm\/0a4ed9ea-c4ec-49f8-a2ae-3f05b10ff06c\/sfOfu4gTggF5HUWmhqxBSwHK.jpg"}
