National Conversation on Civility: Lawyer Wellbeing
National Conversation on Civility: Lawyer Wellbeing
The legal profession is in the throes of a mental health crisis, with lawyers experiencing depression and substance abuse at unusually high rates and their struggles too often resulting in suicide or overdose. Lack of well-being in the profession not only has negative consequences for practitioners, their clients, and their employers, but also points to deep-seated problems within the legal profession. The distress of the legal professional, in other words, can be re-envisioned as a crisis of the profession itself, exposing a widening gulf between the ideals of the legal profession and its actual practice. This course offers new perspectives on: commonly accepted challenges in modern practice; connections between civility in the profession and lawyer wellbeing; culture shifts that value client satisfaction and outcomes more highly than billable hours; and the celebration of developing relationships over winning at all costs.
