Workshop Holistic Practice Law

Workshop Holistic Practice, welcome in the HUB!

As an introductory offer we provide a workshop about Holistic Practice and Problem Solving. The primary objective of this workshop is to introduce the background and history of Holistic Practice to you. We introduce the concept of “holistic lawyer or holistic practitioner” and the related approach in conducting your practice. We discuss the advantages of the Holistic approach for both the client and the professional. The objective is to deploy the best possible approach for the problems put forward by the clients. In the process we consider the client as a whole person and the problem in question in its entirety.

Holistic Law is aimed at making a connection between, on the one hand, the legal aspects at issue and, on the other hand, the feelings of the person/party concerned, the relationship and connection forming part of this problem. The holistic lawyer or holistic practitioner will develop a strategy to assist and facilitate the person/party seeking justice in a positive and constructive manner, whereby he will consider the client’s role in the conflict as well as his own responsibility in that regard. The balance between a good feeling on the part of the client and on the part of the professional is important.

The new-age professional of the 21st century is open to approaching a problem from all angles, namely from the heart, the soul, the body and the spirit. It offers a fresh and more in-depth perspective on the professional practice whereby we are open to  innovative and healthy ways of working, in addition to our traditional profession. The basic principle is that we are all connected.

For many lawyers legal practice puts great pressure on their life and well-being. Holistic law provides a way of working where attention is also given to health and balance, to compassion and resilience. It is more than just appreciating the other party’s point of view, we take an helicopter view of the problem as a whole, including each party’s share in it.
