Exile forced Neumann to retrain from German law to political science.

Evidence

Neumann also maintained a legal practice in Berlin, which on occasion brought him before the Federal Supreme Labor Court. As might be expected, his expertise in German law proved useless in England. And so, under Laski’s guidance, he set out to retrain himself in political science. In 1936, the year he joined the Institut, Neumann was granted a doctorate by the London School of Economics. — Martin Jay, The Dialectical Imagination, 461
