Lawyers Need To Have Mental Health Check-ups
The Virginia Bar Association stated that over 250,000 practicing lawyers are now over 55 years old and that number will be over 750,000 in the next ten years. Everyone knows that as humans age they must deal with brain recall issues. A little less than ten percent of people over 65 experience Alzheimer’s Disease. We must make sure that lawyers are not demented.
Thus, the Online Think Tank has suggested bi-annual testing of all lawyers over age 50 to make sure they are competent and this can be done in conjunction with “on-going education” and passing a 3/4 bar test every two years. Their IQs can be tested too, along with their recall.
