The NOBC- APRL joint committee, which was appointed in August 2005, also recommended that regulators, courts and bar associations improve public safeguards through the early identification of and more effective responses to age-impaired lawyers, including such alternatives as voluntary permanent retirement. The report endorsed the expansion of lawyer-judge assistance programs to include age-impaired lawyers. Such programs have proven highly effective for lawyers with alcohol and substance abuse issues in reducing recidivism and better protecting clients and the public.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
