    Utah Lawyers Helping Lawyers is committed to rendering confidential assistance to any member of the Utah State Bar whose professional performance is or may be impaired because of mental illness, emotional distress, substance abuse or any other disabling condition or circumstance.

   Currently LHL matches those whom it assists with one on one volunteer peer mentors and conducts support groups and continuing legal education.

    The law is an intellectually rewarding area in which to work but can be very challenging.  Practicing law can be very stressful.  LHL encourages lawyers and other legal professionals to practice healthy strategies for coping with stress.  LHL also encourages those whom it serves  not only to make healthy choices for themselves but for them to look out for the well being of their fellow lawyers and legal professionals who might be struggling.

     If things ever seem to be too much for you or for someone else to handle, you are not alone.  LHL cares and is here to help.  Please telephone LHL so that you might share with a friendly ear whatever issues you face and discuss options.

LHL Seeks Volunteers
    LHL seeks volunteers to serve on such committees as Volunteer Peer Mentoring, Support Group, Continuing Legal Education, and Volunteer Training.  If you are interested in learning more about these volunteer opportunities and others, please contact LHL at (801) 579 - 0404, (800) 530 - 3743 or admin@lawyershelpinglawyers.org.

NBA: Utah Jazz look strong, but two-month road test awaits

By Brian T. Smith The Salt Lake Tribune
Published Feb 6, 2012 11:39PM MDT
Two years, Jazz coach Tyrone Corbin said. That?s how long it takes most NBA teams to learn how to win on the road. And for every good squad that eventually becomes great by claiming victories away from the comforts of home, there are average clubs that continually fall apart and never take the next step because they fail to learn how to win in someone else?s building. Corbin spent 16 seasons playing in the NBA. The first two were filled with constant mental and physical adjustments, as he adapte...

New York ? NBA commissioner David Stern said Monday he wants the recent war of words between Jazz CEO Greg Miller and ex-Utah forward Karl Malone ?put to rest.? Less than three days after Miller used Twitter to call Malone a liar and then wrote a lengthy blog post ripping the first-ballot Hall of Famer, Stern acknowledged it?s been painful to watch their fiery standoff from afar.

The Associated Press

Emotion got the best of him on Saturday night against the Rockets, and now he and the Minnesota Timberwolves have to pay the price: Love, his team?s leading scorer and rebounder, was suspended for two games by the NBA for ?driving his foot into the upper body and face of the Rockets? Luis Scola as Scola was lying on the floor.? The play happened in the third quarter of Saturday?s victory o...
