Iowa Lawyers Assistance Program
REACH OUT TO US
Managing your general health and wellness is integral in helping you function at your peak performance in all aspects of life. This includes understanding how to take care of yourself emotionally, physically, and psychologically, and learning how to make good lifestyle choices.
The practice of law demands your time, energy and attention. The responsibilities to others often requires legal professionals to forsake their own well-being in order to achieve success.
While law school provides a great opportunity, it can be a very stressful time due to the heavy workload, high expectations, time commitment, student debt and competition for landing the right job.
