We are delighted to invite you to register for the July edition of the Staying Well in the Law series - The law within: moral injury in legal practice, on Wednesday 23 July.

There is a quiet danger that is pervasive in the legal profession: moral injury. Moral injury is a psychological wound that many lawyers experience when, in the course of their work, they witness, perpetrate, or fail to prevent something that directly conflicts with their individual, core ethical values or "inner laws." In a profession largely dedicated to preventing, witnessing, and remedying serious harms and trespasses, moral injury can be part and parcel to many solicitors' daily lives.

In this session, Anna Fischer, Wellbeing Manager at The Law Society of NSW, will define moral injury and differentiate it from vicarious trauma, cover why and how it shows up throughout legal practice, and lay a practical framework for how to prevent, identify, and manage it in your own life.

We look forward to seeing you there.
