Between billable hours, large workloads, and professional obligations, a lawyer’s time can easily be dominated by their professional life. Legal professionals may in turn limit the time they devote to family, hobbies, and self-care.

Join our panel of authors and editors from the recently published The Right Not to Remain Silent: The Truth About Mental Health in the Legal Profession for a lively discussion about the state of well-being and work-life balance within the legal profession.
