    Physical or mental impairment can arise from substance abuse, mental illness or cognitive deficits.  A seemingly brilliant lawyer can mask a substance abuse disorder that interferes with their judgment.  This webinar discusses ethical issues concerning recognizing when impairment occurs, how it impacts a lawyer’s duty of competence and the duties colleagues have to proactively to assist the lawyer and protect the clients.
