Podcast Interview — The Importance of Supporting Mental Health and Emotional Well-Being in the Legal Profession

In this Legal Speak podcast interview, host Patrick Krill talks to LeeAnn Black about the benefits to law firms in investing in health and well-being for their lawyers and staff, and ways other firms can get started with developing related initiatives. 

Latham is proud to be an inaugural signatory to the recently announced American Bar Association campaign to improve the substance use and mental health landscape of the legal profession. Upon signing the campaign pledge, Black noted that “this commitment continues our longstanding efforts to support optimum mental health and well-being for our people, which include programs aimed at developing mindfulness and resilience, behavioral health education that encourages use of professional resources, and a range of counseling offerings, among other initiatives.”
