World Mental Health Day

October 10th always marks World Mental Health Day, a day to raise awareness about the importance of mental health. And few professions need that awareness as much as the legal profession.

For a deadline-driven, type-A profession, those in the legal community put themselves last far too often. And while they might justify such actions as nothing more than zealous advocacy, the fact of the matter is balance is essential to being your best advocate. Over worked lawyers might benefit their firm’s billable hours, but they aren’t benefiting themselves and there is a decent chance they are not serving their clients as well as they possibly could either.

That, of course, is where the LegalMind Society comes in. The LegalMind Society was formed to help support lawyers who might be struggling with mental health conditions, allowing them to better take care of themselves, their clients, and their livelihood. So if you are an attorney looking for support, look no further than the LegalMind Society.
