Join Dr. Hood as she talks to Stephen Juge, an elite international attorney, about the challenges of law school and the legal profession. In this, the first of a two-episode series, they will explore how the legal profession has developed into what many see as a highly competitive, win-at-all-cost profession. What does this type of system do to law students? What does it do to lawyers? What does it do to clients?

In the next episode, they will discuss the landmark study done by Patrick Krill, The Betty Ford Center, and The Hazeldon Foundation and what that study and the subsequent studies done by the American Bar Association mean for the legal profession.
