Ethics and Well-Being: Enhance Your Legal Practice with Healthier Choices

Attorneys regularly experience stress in their day-to-day work. This is only increased by added pressures when closing a deal, going to trial, or meeting filing deadlines. Attorneys often turn to food, alcohol, drugs, or other unhealthy habits to manage stress and may also let go of otherwise healthy habits when deadlines are looming.
