“MINDFULNESS & IDENTIFYING IMPAIRMENTS TO ATTORNEY COMPETENCE”
From major law firms to top-tier law schools, lawyers’ interest in mindfulness continues to grow. This seminar will focus on mindfulness, and how mindfulness (or the lack thereof) can affect your practice. Dr. Lynda Gantt will also discuss how mindfulness can help attorneys identify problem behaviors and conditions, so that lawyers can continue delivering competent and ethical services to their clients. Mr. Escobedo will provide a lawyer’s prospective on this very important topic.
