Lawyers Assistance Program

The Lawyers Assistance Program provides confidential support, counselling, referrals and peer interventions for lawyers, their families, support staff and articled students who need help to deal with alcohol or chemical dependencies, stress, depression or other personal problems.

Based on the concept of “lawyers helping lawyers,” the Lawyers Assistance Program relies on a network of volunteers from the BC legal community. The Law Society funds this program as a service to the profession.

The Lawyers Assistance Program is entirely independent and all inquiries and interactions are strictly confidential from the Law Society.
