Abstract. e problem ofprofessional burnout has been inthe center ofnumerous research
for the last decades.  eir results facilitated diagnosing the causes and consequences ofthis pro-
fessional dysphoria.  e majority ofthis research was focused on social occupations connected
with intensive contacts with people. However, practicing lawyers who have a lot ofsocial contacts
by the nature ofservice and therefore especially su er from burnout, have not been studied fully
enough.  e relevance ofour study ofthis problem primarily lies inthe need offurther research
ofthe professional burnout syndrome for its timely prevention and assistance to lawyers.
e investigation ofthe professional burnout syndrome among that category ofworkers was
carried out with the help ofthe MBI survey to determine the level ofprofessional burnout accord-
ing to the methods ofChristina Maslach and Susan Jackson inadaptation ofNatalia E. Vodop-
yanova based on the research ofpsychologists Charles Figley, Simon Philip Baron-Cohen, as well
as Russian scholars.  e respondents’ survey took place inthe city ofVologda inFebruary 2023
and the sampling population was more than 500 respondents.
As a result the relationship ofprofessional burnout with age and gender was determined. It
turned out that working women are more prone to burnout than men, as they have additional
emotional and physical burden connected with family chores.
ere isa description ofdepersonalization as a component ofemotional burnout: inadequate
attitude towards colleagues, irritability, loss of“idealism” and withdrawal into oneself. At the same
time it was revealed that the impact ofthe psychological state ofan individual employee on the
whole team isinsigni cant. Speci c recommendations for the prevention ofthe emotional burn-
out syndrome are suggested; the impact ofprofessional burnout on the respondents’ general state
ofhealth was studied. Dependency ofemotional burnout with empathy and features ofthe team
are revealed.  e most e cient ways ofemotional burnout syndrome prevention are suggested.
e results ofthe research can be used by psychologists who work with lawyers with emotional
burnout symptoms and heads oforganizations.
