Stronger Today - Safer Tomorrow: Essential Self Defense Techniques for Attorneys

In 2023, over two million people in the U.S. were victims of violent crimes. Attorneys, particularly those working in contentious areas of law, may face heightened risks due to the nature of their work. How can legal professionals minimize their chances of being targeted while managing the mental toll of personal safety concerns? This presentation aims to enhance attorneys' safety and overall well-being by reducing the risk of becoming victims of violent crimes. Traditional self-defense programs often focus solely on physical techniques, which may not be practical or accessible for many busy professionals. This presentation bridges the gap by teaching attorneys mental awareness and preparedness strategies tailored to their unique risks and challenges. These strategies are scientifically backed and time-tested, helping attorneys stay physically and mentally resilient in high-stress environments. Attorneys have more control over their safety and mental well-being than they realize! By learning to recognize risks, adopting daily safety practices, and preparing for potential threats, legal professionals can reduce their vulnerability to crime while enhancing their stress management and mental resilience. These tools not only protect you physically but also contribute to a more focused, competent, and well-balanced legal practice.Dr. Lonna Denny, Founder, Bulletproof Babes LLCAngeli Fitch, Attorney, Infinity Law GroupAudio versions of Beverly Hills Bar Association programs are eligible for Self-Study CLE credit in California.
