Show Notes
Many segments of the legal profession operate as adversarial systems at their core, with colleagues becoming combatants as they fight for their clients and handle difficult situations day in and day out. Not every practice area has this same intensity, but the ongoing stresses of legal work can detract from an attorney’s wellbeing in any area of the law. The profession is committed to continuing to destigmatize mental health and substance abuse struggles to support lawyers in need. Rocky Dhir welcomes Michelle Fontenot to talk about the many resources available to legal professionals through the Texas Lawyers’ Assistance Program. If you, a friend, or a loved one is in need of help, contact TLAP or explore its many resources at www.tlaphelps.org.
Michelle Fontenot is Director of the Texas Lawyers’ Assistance Program.
