Free Webinar: Navigating Client Relationships: Boundaries & Best Practices in Family Law

Family law can be extremely rewarding yet entirely unforgiving, depending on what type of client happens to walk through your door. In addition to being a stressful and anxiety-riddled and hectic field, family law also often robs us of our own well-being as attorneys.  Sometimes, having empathy in our field works a disservice for us, which is why so many in our area of law become burnt out and seek to pivot from family law altogether. But, there are ways to mitigate this and makes things easier on yourself and your staff!
