 Aging and Transitioning With Dignity: 

“The graying of the bar has created concerns that declining skills or deteriorating mental acuity may cause professional incompetence to rise in the near future.”   

 

One Lawyer’s Story: 

This lawyer’s addiction wreaked havoc in her life, on a personal and professional level. Only after a life changing traumatic event was she able to find the courage to change. Her worst day turned out to be her best, and gave her the willingness to recover.

 

Judicial Wellness Survey:

On December 20, 2020, the ABA released a comprehensive survey report revealing key drivers of judicial stress. Access the ABA press release and 2020 Journal of the Professional Lawyer here.
