Collaborative attorneys work at the intersection of legal complexity, emotional intensity and human vulnerability. Supporting clients through major life transitions, while maintaining neutrality, compassion, professionalism and steady communication, requires a grounded nervous system and a centered presence. This interactive and experiential session introduces mindfulness as a practical tool to help collaborative practitioners stay regulated, responsive and clear-thinking in moments when emotions escalate, expectations collide or difficult dynamics arise. The session is free, but registration is required.
