National Suicide Prevention Month is a reminder that nearly half of lawyers are burned out. Most won't say so out loud.
A new national study of nearly 37,000 lawyers, the largest of its kind, found:
- Nearly half of lawyers (47.4%) screen positive for high burnout
- About 1 in 5 report clinically significant depression or anxiety symptoms
- Only 39% believe their employer is doing enough to support mental health
- 81% want the profession to prioritize this issue
These numbers are a call to action, not just data. If you're struggling, you don't have to navigate it alone. The Lawyer Assistance Program offers confidential support for California legal professionals, no judgment, no reporting obligations.
