It’s been 9 months, shyt is a tragic comedy at this point. Had someone reach out to me last week for an interview I gave the times and they said they would confirm then they ghosted me and I even followed up multiple times.

Do you know how to do e-discovery?
Lots of firms need discovery specialists.
I have a friend who took a paralegal position for 6 months and was just promoted to associate. He went from $65k to $80k plus quarterly bonuses.
Maybe look into paralegal positions with a JD (and I’m assuming you passed the bar) you should be able to land something.
Idk with a law degree I’ve never had trouble finding a job. Stop applying online most jobs are bogus.
Stop trying to help him. He's been making this same bullshyt thread for years. Everybody's already told him this shyt a dozen times

Life is absurd. Lean into it.
Job market is tough.
I decided to pivot back to supply chain. I used get 1-2 companies a month cold calling asking if I wanted to interview 2-3 years ago. I got turned down or ghosted on everything I've done in the last 4 months and I put in over 100 applications.
I did land something but only because I knew someone and it's kinda laughable because legitimately everyone I interviewed with for this role said I was overqualified, but they loved my skillset.
Keep your head up, hopefully something gives.

I see alot of Regulatory Compliance and Permitting jobs in the Construction Industry
Why not go that route and apply there? That is a real need in that industry
