Life in the Law is a cross professional, cross jurisdictional study into the working practices in law and how these impact mental wellbeing, over 1700 legal professionals took part, making this the largest study of its kind in the UK legal sector.  The research has ethical approval from the University of Sheffield. The study has looked at burnout, work intensity and psychological safety.
