Stress, Addiction and Mental Health: An Ethical Perspective

Speakers: Chase Andersen and Joan Bibelhausen, Lawyers Concerned for Lawyers
Description: For lawyers, missing deadlines and failing to communicate or complete projects may be the tip of the iceberg when it comes to excessive stress and addiction, and mental health issues. Those same issues and others may be present in clients. When a client is impaired, the lawyer has both obligations and opportunities. There are obligations when the lawyer is impaired, but fortunately, there is also help available. This program looks at professional responsibility aspects of impairment from both the client and lawyer perspective.
