More and more people have a smartphone as a constant companion from the moment they wake up until they go to sleep. These devices connect us to work, social circles, hobbies, and even family. However, is this level of constant connectivity actually harming the legal professional?

The data indicates that the answer is, perhaps, yes. Our upcoming Justia Webinar, Virtual Isolation: Is Hyperconnectivity Helping or Harming the Legal Professional?, seeks to shed light on this critical issue and explore the ways lawyers and the profession can respond to the situation.

Lawyers spend their days in an always-on culture, constantly connected to work, clients, and colleagues. A gradual and incremental increase in responsibilities combined with long working hours has left many lawyers struggling to find balance in their lives. The constant connectivity often isolates legal professionals from the non-work aspects of their lives and, as a result, creates higher levels of burnout and chronic stress.

Join Brian S. Quinn this Friday, October 27, at 2:00 p.m. ET/11:00 a.m. PT for a webinar exploring the impact of technology on lawyers and discussing how the profession can respond to this crisis. Brian’s presentation will cover ways to identify impairment and mental health warning signs in lawyers and discuss the resources available through lawyer assistance programs. Attendees can also expect to discuss the stigma surrounding mental health and the ethical challenges brought together by technology and the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic.
