Seyfarth Life in 2022

Seyfarth Life, the firm’s well-being effort, provided a wide variety of programming in 2022 to address mental and physical well-being, resiliency, individual development, and community networks. A few of Seyfarth Life’s significant accomplishments in 2022 include:

The 2022 Inspiration Project scholarship, where individuals were selected to pursue a dream project focused on health, wellness, lifelong learning, or community development. Introduction to Mindfulness, led by 2020 Inspiration Project scholarship winner Susan Ryan, was held in late summer. Each of the four hourlong sessions featured an introduction, moment of silence, stretching, topic of the week, and Q&A. Participants could attend live, watch on-demand, or both!

Awareness weeks, from Nutrition Week to Sleep Awareness Week to Well-Being Week in Law, offered much for colleagues to participate in and learn about. Well-Being Week in Law, the firm’s third annual, was held in early May and  promotes and encourages well-being for lawyers and staff while emphasizing physical, spiritual, intellectual, social, and emotional well-being. The week was filled with activities, guides, webinars, videos, and resources.

Well-being and wellness webinars were offered firmwide, including: “Stress Resiliency and Peak Performance in the Law - Science Based Tools to Become a Happier, Healthier and Better Legal Professional” with Jarrett Green & Rebecca Simon Green, and “Substance and Alcohol Misuse” with Patrick Krill.

Our Gratitude at Seyfarth Challenge encouraged employees to reflect and give thanks to the people that make Seyfarth great. There were two ways to participate: sharing the names of people you are grateful for at the firm, or writing & sending out a handwritten thank you note.
