When to hire one
- When missed deadlines, late time entries or an overflowing inbox start to show up in reviews.

- At a transition: your first year in practice, a lateral move or a new partner role.
- When you want help preparing to ask for accommodations at work.
Coach, therapist or doctor?
An ADHD coach helps with habits, systems and follow-through. The International Coaching Federation states that coaching is not psychology and does not diagnose, treat, or prescribe medication [3]. Diagnosis, medication and therapy come from licensed clinicians, and some lawyers work with a coach alongside them. When a coach holds an ADHD coaching certification or a therapy license, the profile shows it, and you can filter for coaches with an ADHD coaching certification.
Plan to pay for coaching yourself: insurance usually doesn't cover ADHD coaching, so the cost is generally paid out of pocket [4], according to Understood, a nonprofit that publishes expert-reviewed guidance on ADHD. Understood puts the typical cost of ADHD coaching at $75 to $200 an hour [5]. Each profile lists the prices confirmed from the coach’s own website, and when at least 3 listings here show a price per session or hour, this page shows the range. For stress and burnout more broadly, see coaches for lawyer burnout and well-being and our guide to lawyer mental health.

Questions about ADHD coaching for lawyers
Is ADHD good for lawyers?
ADHD is neither good nor bad for a legal career by itself. Some lawyers with ADHD do well in fast-moving work with hard deadlines, such as trials or deal closings, and struggle more with long documents, time entries and email. ADHD coaching builds on what works for you and adds systems for the rest.
How much do ADHD coaches charge?
ADHD coaching typically costs $75 to $200 an hour [5], according to Understood, a nonprofit that publishes expert-reviewed guidance on ADHD. Understood adds that some coaches sell packages that can lower the hourly rate. Each profile in this directory lists the prices confirmed from the coach’s own website.
Will insurance pay for ADHD coaching?
Usually not. Understood, a nonprofit that publishes expert-reviewed guidance on ADHD, says insurance usually doesn't cover ADHD coaching, so the cost is generally paid out of pocket [4]. Therapy and medical care for ADHD are a different question: ask your insurer what your plan covers, and if you have an HSA or FSA, ask the plan administrator whether coaching qualifies.
Can you be a lawyer with ADHD?
Yes. Many lawyers report ADHD: in a national study of lawyers published in 2016 [1] in the Journal of Addiction Medicine, ADHD was among the mental health conditions lawyers reported most often over their careers, at 12.5% [2]. Many practice successfully, with their own systems, support at work and, for some, treatment from a clinician.
What is executive function coaching?
Executive function coaching works on the skills ADHD makes harder: planning, starting tasks, managing time, tracking deadlines and finishing work. For a lawyer that often means systems for time entries, email, calendars and long drafting projects, with regular check-ins.
