This topical collection brings together scholarship and practical strategies for wellness in law spanning legal education, transition to legal work and a successful and sustainable career in the law. It is clear that while the issue of wellness for law is now widely acknowledged there is still much to be done, including in response to the legacy of the COVID-19 pandemic on both the teaching and practice of law.  

The book features international and Australian perspectives on wellness in legal education and the practice of law, including: 

  • reflections on progress and future directions in research and best practice for wellness in law
  • support for law student wellness through teaching strategies informed by self-determination theory and the qualities of professional behaviour sought in law graduates
  • transition to practice and establishing the foundations for a sustainable, healthy and ethical career
  • wellness of law academics and the legal profession, including the judiciary
  • psychosocial hazards, the obligations of employers and trauma-informed practice

The book was developed from presentations at the Wellness for Law Forum hosted by the University of Melbourne and Monash University in February 2024. It is important reading for all areas of legal academia and the legal profession.
