It may be an alcohol fueled incident at a firm event, changed behavior in a partner or associate, or poor representation by the lawyer on the other side of your matter. Addiction, dependency and mental illness are not uncommon in the legal profession. Learn to identify the classic warning signs of alcoholism and other mental health issues, help others get the help they need and provide support as they recover. This program discusses the disease of addiction along with predictors, risk factors, signs and symptoms. The presenters also provide realistic approaches and options for treatment and support, including lawyer assistance programs across the country. Ethical considerations for these issues are addressed.
