The Sobering Truth about Addiction in the Legal Profession

Wednesday, Mar 29, 2023 12:00 PM CDT

The never ending deadlines and client demands, along with the overall pressure associated with the profession, can unfortunately lead to addiction and substance abuse for many lawyers. Thankfully, there are many resources for those that may be struggling. Erica Grigg, Attorney with the Texas Lawyers’ Assistance Program, and Eric Wood, MA, LCAC, Clinical Case Manager with the Indiana Judges and Lawyers Assistance Program, thoughtfully examine substance abuse and how to assist lawyers on the path to sobriety and wellness in this 60-minute webinar.
