Twenty-seven years deep into a bankruptcy practice that saw him represent debtors and creditors in countless insolvencies, workouts, and restructuring cases, Charles Glerum decided that he was tired. Tired of the stress, the high stakes, the grueling hours–tired of being a lawyer.

“I had always wanted to retire in my 50′s,” says Glerum, now 56. But he had a strong practice and a number of cases to work, “so I dragged it out a little bit longer than I had initially intended,” he adds. In June 2007, though, he resigned his partnership at Choate Hall & Stewart. As an attorney who headed the firm’s bankruptcy practice and had been listed in Best Lawyers in America and Massachusetts Super Lawyers, Glerum certainly had an impressive body of work from which to retire.
