Top ten stressors of lawyers

7/18/2018

0 Comments

 
​Being a lawyer is hard work. And I’m not just talking about the actual legal work you’re doing, such as drafting a contract, preparing for a court hearing and other matters. These are of course challenging, but more in an intellectual way. 

​But what about emotions? We’re all human and have the capacity to experience stress, anxiety, depression, alcohol abuse and other concerns. 
Picture
The issues below and others can lead to mental health and alcohol/drug use concerns ...
​… 
1.    Billable hours
2.    Unreasonable deadlines
3.    Work schedule (60/70/80+ hour work weeks)
4.    Demanding supervisors
5.    Ultra-competitive colleagues
6.    Isolation
7.    Perfectionism
8.    Looking for worst case scenarios (This makes you a good lawyer, but can negatively affect you)
9.    Job search
10.     Law school didn’t prepare you for actual lawyering (Just theory)
11.     Why not one more: Student loans!
It’s difficult enough being a lawyer, these issues just add an unnecessary burden on us. I can help you better manage these issues and improve the quality of your life. Give me a call or text me at (302) 273-0700 or email me for a FREE phone consultation.
