We have a collective responsibility across the legal profession to step up and address the root causes of the mental wellbeing problem in the law.  The risk if we don’t? We will lose talented people and we won’t attract a wide range of people into our sector.

Today at LawCare we have released the findings of our research study Life in the Law. The research into mental wellbeing captured data from over 1,700 legal professionals across the UK, Republic of Ireland, Jersey, Guernsey, and Isle of Man.  Our aim was to take a snapshot of mental health and wellbeing to help inform future steps the profession must collectively take to improve wellbeing in the sector.
