Lawyers tend to be the butt of a lot of jokes in media and entertainment. But behind those jokes is a reality of what being a lawyer is — hard long hours, and a lot of pressure. Research shows that the legal field is among the top professions where people struggle with mental health. In this episode of Columbia Chronicles, reporter Anna Machado introduces us to an ethics lawyer who has faced some struggles of his own.

Produced and edited by Molly Stover; final production by Ava A. Strauss.
