The American Bar Association Family Law Section has released a new book, “Family Lawyer as Peacemaker,” a pioneering work by Forrest S. Mosten and Lara Traum that redefines the role of the family lawyer as a healer, guide and changemaker.
The authors draw on decades of hands-on experience, deep reflection and commitment to justice with a human face and offer a visionary blueprint for practicing law through empathy, collaboration and sustainable conflict resolution.
This comprehensive volume explores the principles, practices and mindsets that transform family law into a peacemaking profession.
From reshaping legal practice around healing and collaboration to cultivating self-awareness and emotional intelligence, the authors guide readers through the practical and philosophical foundations of peaceful lawyering.
Whether navigating mediation, collaborative practice, prenuptial agreements or long-term client relationships, the book provides concrete tools and frameworks to help professionals lead with presence and purpose.
“Family Lawyer as Peacemaker” is available now as a paperback for $79.95 from major retailers, including
ABA at 800-285-2221 or ShopABA.org, and Amazon.
