SUMMARY:Clients in Crisis\, CLE # 541844 (One Ethics Credit Sought)
DESCRIPTION:The last few years have disrupted lawyers’ professional and personal lives. Attorneys may feel like their lives seem out of control\, yet they are not alone in feeling the effects of a pandemic\, economic downturn\, or political divisiveness. Clients are affected too. Attorneys must manage their own emotions while simultaneously being sensitive and responsive to their clients. This program will identify normal feelings\, reactions\, and behaviors\, and recognize when they are cause for concern. For some clients\, reactions may rise to the level of impairment. Impairment comes in many forms\, including substance use\, addiction\, or other mental impairments. It is not a lawyer’s job to diagnose\, yet a lawyer must act accordingly. What is the lawyer’s role\, responsibility\, and opportunity when working with a potentially impaired client? What if the issue is not with a client but with a colleague? The answers are seldom simple and never easy. This program will provide an ethical framework as well as practical guidance and resources for lawyers facing these questions. (Chase Andersen\, presenting) Free Registration

SUMMARY:Managing Stress Mindfully\, CLE #540619 (Patty Devoy\, Client Services Director LCL)
DESCRIPTION:It is no secret that being a lawyer can be incredibly stressful. Trying to manage difficult clients\, complex cases\, and demanding deadlines while having a life outside of work can feel impossible at times. Left unchecked\, stress can have severe impacts on our physical and mental health and on a lawyer’s ability to comply with ethical obligations related to competence\, diligence\, and communication. This program will not only teach lawyers about the health risks related to stress\, but how mindfulness and meditation can help with reducing the risk of stress-related problems in their law practice to allow lawyers to thrive personally and professionally.  Lawyers will also learn how to identify signs of stress in themselves and in their colleagues along with practical strategies and resources for supporting well-being in the workplace. Attendees will also experience a brief guided body scan as an introduction to meditation along with resources for managing stress and developing a consistent mindfulness practice. (One ethics credit applied for) Free Registration. \n
