Welcome to the Revolution.
ex judicata is the only employment platform built specifically to help attorneys find nonlegal positions. We believe that a JD degree should be a door opener and a foundation for myriad careers, not just the practice of law.
We provide resources to set you up for success, connect you with companies that want your skillset, and a community of people who know what you are going through.
You are not alone.

Psychodrama and Sociodrama
Using these Tools to Support Law Student Well-Being
Complimentary Webinar – August 27, 2025 | 2:00 PM ET
Join NALP members, Frank Bartolomeo, PhD, CGP, CP/PAT, Founder & Chief Clinical Officer of The Well Center for Development,
and Anna Schaum, LPC, TEP, Founder and Strategist for Dramatic Changes – The Center for Sound Relationships for a dynamic discussion on psychodrama and sociodrama.
Through an interactive presentation and role play, attendees will help create a fictional student “protagonist” to explore how psychodrama and sociodrama techniques can be used by career advisors to reduce anxiety and support student well-being. While the example will focus on a law student, these approaches can be applied across a variety of contexts.

Introducing: EXJ Search
Shortly after the Ex Judicata Job Board went live, we started to get requests from companies seeking to hire lawyers for nonlegal roles requiring more experience and sophistication than typically found on job boards.
We then got to work.
