Mentoring Lawyers: Finding Civility

By James H Fierberg

If you are a skilled legal professional, you know incivility within the profession has reached epidemic proportions.

James H. Fierberg spent almost forty years practicing law at the highest levels, and he suggests the profession can solve the problem by paying attention to something it has mostly ignored: mentoring lawyers.

In fact, he argues that mentoring programs can help to elevate save the profession and also remove some of the world's rampant toxicity. He answers questions such as:

- How can firms urge an early and comprehensive mindful moral inventory of new attorneys?

- What can firms do to help lawyers cultivate positive interpersonal skills and progress in the legal profession?

- What can senior lawyers do to nurture a legacy for themselves, their firms, and their brands?

Mindful mentors must not only commit to teaching mentees-they must encourage them to come to terms with exactly who they are, how they got to this point, and how they will establish themselves in the community of law moving forward.
