Event Description
Deadline to Register: December 8, 2016
Lawyers face stress daily and are subject to particular
circumstances which can lead to higher levels of stress than for most other
members of the population. Family law can present additional challenges because
of the presence of substance use and other issues in the cases. There is a
clearly recognized continuum where unresolved chronic stress becomes a predictor
for addiction and mental illness, particularly depression, which are also more
prevalent among lawyers. By understanding this continuum and the facts about
addiction and mental illness, lawyers can reduce their risk and, hopefully, get
help earlier when there is a mental health or addiction/dependency problem.
Signs, symptoms, risk factors and recovery regarding these problems will be
presented. Personal examples and information on Minnesota’s lawyer assistance
program will also be provided.
The Family Law Section membership will
meet prior to the CLE at 9:30 a.m.
