This

profession through a holistic focus on well-being. Whether you are an
aspiring lawyer or an established professional looking to build a
rewarding career in law, this website provides invaluable resources
to support you in fostering a successful and balanced professional

IWIL was founded in 2020 to carry forward the mission

important movement was established by leading legal entities,
including the National Organisation of Bar Counsel (NOBC), the
Association of Professional Responsibility Lawyers (APRL), and the
American Bar Association’s Commission on Lawyer Assistance Programs
(CoLAP). Their vision is ambitious yet crucial: to advocate,
research, educate, support, and collaborate across the legal sector,
making well-being an integral part of professional success.
IWIL
works at every level—local, national, and even international—to
champion well-being across the legal profession. They are
continuously developing and sharing evidence-based educational
resources, practical strategies, tools, and guidance to help protect
and enhance well-being within the legal community. Through targeted
research, IWIL seeks to deepen the collective understanding of
well-being in the legal profession, aiming to keep it central to both
practice and discourse.
As you explore this website, you will

research insights to informative podcasts, upcoming events, and ways
to get involved through donations. This site is thoughtfully designed
to support and inspire the next generation of lawyers and legal
professionals. It offers tools and guidance to help you pursue a
fulfilling and sustainable legal career.
In conclusion,
prioritising well-being is vital not only to your competence as a
lawyer but also to your personal satisfaction and longevity in the
profession. This site could be a guide to support you as you embark
on this journey, helping you cultivate a career where both
professional success and personal thriving are achievable.
