 ss!"

 hing isn't right."   
>  "What will happen to our
  reputation if our clients find out he's in a ment
 al health facility"?     

These issues are beco
 ming more common as the prevalence rates for impai
 rment due to substance and alcohol misuse, stress,
  anxiety and depression continue to rise. One out 
 of three lawyers will require some form of treatme
 nt for these issues in their careers. Despite thes
 e startling statistics, the fear of asking for hel
 p remains. Many believe it is the very culture whi
 ch has been created in the legal profession that h
 as lent itself to the notion that overwork remains
  the norm and seeking assistance is a sign of weak
 ness.   

This program will explore:   
    
1
 .  The ethical dilemmas that can occur when a coll
 eague, a supervisor or a subordinate exhibits sign
 s of distress or impairment;   
2.  The duty to r
 eport misconduct as set forth in the Rules of Prof
 essional Conduct.   
3.  The responsibilities imp
 osed by the Rules upon both supervisory and subord
 inate attorneys for the misconduct of attorneys an
 d staff members.   
4.  The harm that can occur t
 o all parties by "looking the other way" or ignori
 ng new bad behaviors because it's "none of my busi
 ness."   
5.  The stigma that surrounds substance
  misuse and mental health issues in the legal prof
 ession.   
6.  The free resources that Lawyers As
 sistance programs provide to help lawyers, judges,
  their families and law students     Event Rates
