Eighteen months into his time off, a friend of Bean's who worked at Jaffe Raitt Heuer &; Weiss in Detroit had a large client that needed a senior attorney. Bean had not been actively looking to return to lawyering -- especially at a firm -- but the option to work part time appealed to him. " The client and I got along well and it was a nice firm, " Bean recalls. Before long, the position became full time and Bean is now a Jaffe Raitt partner. / "I'm back in the saddle," he says.
