<p>I had a number of posts on this thread before that have now vanished, so let me just say that I have been practicing for nigh on 30 years. I can attest that there are a number of niches in the practice of law for introverts. In the old days, these would have included partner positions at leading large firms, especially in fields like tax; nowadays not so much. But only a small minority of all the lawyers in practice hold these positions. Assuming the issue is garden-variety shyness or introversion and not a true social phobia, there can easily be a niche for you.</p>
