Well-Being in Law Week

Studies since the 1990s have consistently shown that lawyers have higher rates of depression, problematic alcohol use, and anxiety than the general population. These higher rates show themselves in our colleagues as job dissatisfaction, incivility, unethical behavior, malpractice, and suicidal ideation. All of which lead to a negative perception of lawyers by the public. The Mississippi Bar is celebrating Well-Being in Law Week (May 5-9) by recognizing those legal employers and individuals who have taken part in its Well-Being Initiative by signing the Well-Being Pledge.

Carr Law Firm is proud to make this pledge for ourselves and our employees
