no, the real problem nowadays is that employers want very specific experience in filling their job openings.

they don't want to train. they just want people who have done the specific tasks of the job for X number of years.

forget the days of hiring smart, talented people and then having them learn on the job. if you don't meet the specific experience requirement, your resume goes in the trash. in fact, many employers have algorithms that weed out resumes that lack the required experience.

and entry level positions don't want to hire anyone in their 30s or 40s; they want cheap labor in the form of new graduates.

hence -- changing to a completely new career in your 30s and 40s is extraordinarily difficult.

Absent unusual circumstances, a 43-year-old lawyer wouldn't be hired by anyone as an employee.

If you're talking about starting a law business, that's different.

Agree. If the 43 yo has the money, hangs a shingle, I think he'll have better luck soloing than fresh faced shitlawyers.

Yep, stuff to brag about in an online bio and a few gray hairs, not to mention likely knowing more people in the community.

When you start from zero at 40, you're miles ahead from all the 20-something year olds out there. You have more life experience, knowledge and confidence. So just fucking do it. Start a freaking business. You can hire a bunch of 20-somethings who will think you know what you're doing because you're 40. Srsly, hire some developers to create an app and then a bunch of labor workers to work on the specific business the app is good for. Then profit.
