Welcome to Integrative Lawyers of the World. It's time for a new way of practicing law. A way that honors our interconnectedness and values what's really important, our core values - generosity, integrity, authenticity. If you agree, you are not alone. There is a global integrative law movement that is transformational, impactful, fun. It's time to grow because the world needs us. So, we are interviewing lawyers from around the world who share their experiences as integrative lawyers. One by one and together we can and we are making a positive impact.
Join us along with host Kerry Raleigh for thought provoking discussions from some of the lawyers and advocates on the forefront of the Integrative Law Movement. Learn more at https://www.integrativelaw.com

The importance of taking time to stop and askng “is this what I really want?” -at individual and systems level
A hybrid between for-profit and non-profit organizational structures
The power of your mindset
Importance of finding your tribe
The “Both -And” mindset
An “eye for an eye” belief and actions just creates a world full of blind people
Israel and Gaza
His new life direction of surrendering into the mystery of silence and guided meditation and how this has shown him that the more you change yourself, the more your outer world changes

Professor Camilla Andersen is a lawyer and academic. She’s been an academic for over thirty years on 4 different continents. She has a lot of experience in international commercial law, but she has devoted the last decade of her life to change and innovation, and to relational contract theory. She is changing the face of contract law and humanizing law.
In this conversation we discussed:

Communication training for lawyers
Co-creating with clients and other professionals --- remembering that lawyers do not know everything
How legalese can render a contract unenforceable
Ways to make contracts more understandable
Comic Book Contracts and her comic book contract project
Examples of comic book contracts
The many benefits of visual contracts
Word of Caution against creating standardized images and icons for visual contracts
Relational contract theory, perspective, and practice
Her work with Mission Australia for which comic book contract was created for kids who are sent to therapy
What being an integrative lawyer means to her: thinking outside the box, listening to clients, accepting that lawyers do not know everything and co-creating with others.
