About the Program
Particularly in the midst of an unprecedented pandemic, the need for creating, and maintaining, a personal balance is vital. The statistics are staggering on depression, substance abuse and wellness in the legal industry. Even transactional attorneys, who are often incorrectly perceived as having a “low stress” work life, have higher-than-average levels of mental health and wellness issues, and need resources to be successful in improving their own well-being.
Our expert panel, comprised of both wellness professionals and attorneys with a wellness focus, will discuss these resources for fiscal, physical, and mental well-being, and their applicability to young lawyers, especially during this "new normal."
During this online event you will:
- Learn about stressors specific to young lawyers and transactional lawyers
- Hear about how your "new normal" work life may be unknowingly impacting your well-being
- Get resources for improving upon your fiscal, physical, and mental well-being
