I was running with a colleague the other day and she described another lawyer as follows: “He’s like you; smart, but a little off.” Thanks! I think.

I was musing over that comment recently as I participated in a symposium on impaired lawyers. (The subject of the meeting also included impaired judges, but we really did not go there. Dealing with lawyers was enough.) So what do you do if a colleague is more than a little off? Do you have a duty to say something?
