Hi, new hr manager here. I have a bit of a situation at work lol an attorney has been making insensitive comments to our support staff, is generally distracting and over sociable and I’ve gotten some neg feedback about him. I spoke with him this morning and this afternoon, he went up to his legal assistant with the Amber Heard filter on Snap, started asking her what was wrong, she didn’t like being filmed, was upsetand ended up working from home the rest of the day. I’m not sure how to move fwd…

An attorney is no different than anyone else on the payroll, if they are violating any policy they need to be spoken to and written up.

They are certainly no different and probably worse. (former attorney speaking.) They deserve a talking-to for sure.

It’s difficult because he genuinely doesn’t seem to realize or understand the impact his language has on people he’s working with.
We had spoken that morning about keeping communications professional and work related and he seemed to understand but then filmed later that day, only a few hours later

Have you brought this to the attention of the senior management? Why work with such a strange person.

Bring in a 3rd party investigator. Notify the law society (or whatever the governing body is in your jurisdiction) that this individual is under investigation. As a practicing attorney, the will also be accountable to their professional code of conduct

Any advice for healthier eating, or eating in general, when dealing with a particularly stressful time?
