Georgia Bar Lawyer Assistance Program (LAP)

Reminder that Georgia bar members can access 6 free counseling sessions a year, receive referrals for childcare and finances, and much more!


The Lawyer Assistance Program (LAP) is a confidential service provided by the Georgia State Bar, but through a third-party counseling agency to ensure confidentiality.

The LAP provides a broad range of helping services to lawyers seeking assistance with depression, stress, alcohol/drug abuse, family problems, workplace conflicts, psychological and other issues.

You can contact the LAP by calling 800-327-9631, or by emailing Lisa Hardy, vice president, CorpCare Associates, Inc., at lisa@corpcareeap.com.

Services Available Through the Georgia LAP

All services are accessible through the confidential LAP Hotline: 800-327-9631

  1. 24/7 Telephone Hotline: Staffed by trained counselors. If you are a lawyer or judge and have a personal problem that is causing you significant concern, the LAP can help 24/7.  The LAP's confidential hotline is 800-327-9631 and is staffed by trained counselors.
  2. Personal Counseling: Georgia bar members receive six (6) free counseling per calendar year.

Here is what happens when you call the LAP Hotline at 800-327-9631:

  1. Your call will be answered 24/7 by a trained counselor who will ask for your information, but you are not required to provide it. Any information you do provide is kept strictly confidential.
  2. You will then be able to explain your need to the counselor, who will then refer you to professional counselors in an area convenient for you. If you call after hours, you will receive a call back within 24 hours with referrals.
  3. If you decide that you aren’t connecting as well as you’d like with your counselor, you can call the LAP Hotline again and be referred to another professional. The goal is for you to find someone with whom you feel comfortable.
