FROM THE CT LAW TRIBUNE: "LAWYER IMPAIRMENT IS A SERIOUS AND GROWING CRISIS!"

"The statistics are stark and unsettling. Lawyers have the highest suicide rate of any profession. Attorneys suffer from drug and alcohol addiction at twice the rate of the general population. And 25 percent of male attorneys and 40 percent of female lawyers experience clinical depression during their careers—once again, more than any other profession."
 
Why are we not surprised!  Being a criminal and exploiting vulnerable people on a daily basis takes a lot out of a person!
