- Title
INTEGRATIVE LAW.
- Authors
WRIGHT, J. KIM
- Abstract
It is hard to be well in a broken system. The predominant culture of the legal profession is dysfunctional and it encourages isolation and unhealthy competition. We can meditate and exercise and get sleep, but if we still get up and go to work in a dysfunctional system, our well-being is going to suffer. If you could design law practice to work for clients, to align with the values and needs of the lawyers, clients, and society, what would it look like? Around the world, integrative lawyers are doing just that. From the relational practices of collaborative law and restorative justice, to the healing focus on therapeutic jurisprudence, to the creativity of values-based contracts and comicbook contracts, lawyers are finding new ways of being and creating new models for practicing. This article is an overview of integrative law and some of those models.
