Distressed Lawyers: An Occupational Hazard?
Call Number:
Pub. Info: NACLE 2025
Study Program Note: Current / Health
Event ID : 123567
If there is one phrase we continue to hear more than any other term as we navigate through our “new normal” world, it is “stressed out.” But what is stress? What does it look like and feel like? More importantly, what can we do to prevent the normal stress and “lawyer anxiety” so common in our profession from developing into the physically and emotionally draining state known as Burnout? Has it really become an occupational hazard? Recent studies have shown that there has been a dramatic increase in impairment due to alcoholism, addiction and mental health disorders among members of the legal profession. The statistics are compelling and clearly indicate that 1 out of 3 attorneys will likely have a need for substance use or mental health services at some point in their careers.
