Burnout has reached critical levels in the legal profession—nearly 80% of legal professionals report experiencing burnout, and 40% have considered leaving the profession entirely due to stress. This presentation examines the occupational phenomenon of burnout, distinguishing it from everyday stress. Attendees will learn to recognize burnout warning signs in themselves and colleagues, understand the key differences between stress and burnout, and discover practical strategies for response and recovery.

In all events, AALA is committed to providing top-quality, relevant CLE that will be approved for most states.

The One Big Beautiful Bill Act enacted significant tax provisions that impact farmers, ranchers, and rural landowners. In this one-hour webinar, agricultural tax expert Kristine Tidgren, Director of the Center for Agricultural Law and Taxation, will break down the key tax changes introduced by the OBBBA legislation, explaining how these provisions may affect your operation as you close out 2025 and prepare for the 2026 tax year. With practical examples and actionable planning tips, Kristine will help producers understand the implications of the new rules and how to make informed decisions that support long-term financial stability.

In this webinar, legal experts unpack the Supreme Court’s landmark decision in Trump v. CASA, which limited the authority of federal courts to issue universal injunctions. The panel will explore the ruling’s implications for judicial power and future of legal challenges to statutes, regulations, and other unlawful actions.
