Tara Rhoades
Former Biglaw Partner
Founder of The Sanity Plea
I'm an attorney-turned-coach with 8+ years of Biglaw experience.
After graduating from Yale Law School in 2014, I spent 4 years as a Tax Associate at Cravath, Swaine & Moore LLP. In 2018, I joined the New York Tax Department of Kirkland & Ellis LLP and was promoted to Partner in 2020.
Testimonials
"Tara truly does this better than anyone . . . ."
I have had the privilege of working with Tara both in her capacity as a partner at Kirkland and as a career coach. Tara has impacted my career in two major ways. First, her patience and ability to explain complex legal concepts and market practices have provided me with essential foundational knowledge in my career as a tax attorney. Tara truly does this better than anyone I have worked with. In addition, Tara has served as a wonderful advisor and mentor. Having worked at law firms herself, she is well positioned to provide astute career advice to attorneys. Tara is insightful and asks all the right questions. I would recommend Tara to anyone, lawyer or not, looking to take the next step in their career.

"She understands what it takes to . . . navigate a legal career and build a sterling reputation while remaining balanced."
Tara is an outstanding, thoughtful, hard working, intelligent, and detail oriented professional in everything she does. I had the pleasure of working with Tara directly for years, and I was consistently impressed by her work ethic, competence, and ability to make the difficult seem easy. Perhaps more importantly, she manages to do it all with warmth, kindness, and a positive attitude that is infectious.
Tara was my appointed mentor at two different transitions in my career, and she helped me immeasurably in getting comfortable in my new roles. She understands what it takes to practice law and serve client needs at the highest levels, and how to navigate a legal career and build a sterling reputation while remaining balanced.
I have no doubt that she will bring the same tenacity in her new role as a coach, and could not recommend her more highly.

"Her advice proved to be invaluable."
I worked with Tara as a career coach while deciding whether or not to transition from my current position as a biglaw junior associate into another firm and another practice group. Tara, unlike a recruiter, was able to act as an impartial third party and gave me practical advice on questions to ask once I had an offer. She also was able to ask me questions about why I wanted to lateral, and what I hoped to gain from this new job that helped me frame my thinking.
Her advice proved to be invaluable. Before working with Tara, I was very set on lateraling and accepting the job offer. Tara encouraged me to first ask certain questions of the firm, the partners, and associates. After doing so, I was able to clearly see that this opportunity wasn’t right for me given my goals and I opted to stay at my current firm.
I would highly recommend Tara to anyone who needs career coaching. She has a very calm, focused, and organized approach to coaching which I found extremely helpful. She is not there to tell you what to do or what she would have done, but instead uses her years of experience to give you a different perspective. She helps you determine what your goals are and how to achieve them.

"I counseled with her on everything from . . . best practices in working with colleagues, to big picture career questions."
Tara has acted as both a formal and informal mentor to me since the start of my legal career. She proactively engaged with me regularly and connected with me on a personal and professional basis. Early in my career, I needed to make a cross country move and she helped me navigate the office transfer every step of the way. I had no personal relationships with biglaw partners prior to Tara, and her insight has been invaluable to me as I counseled with her on everything from substantive tax law questions, best practices in working with colleagues, to big picture career questions.
