Rooted Practice: A Path to Becoming a Restorative Lawyer


  • Slaty Fork, West Virginia United States (map)

Join Brenda for a 20-hour CLE program in beautiful Slaty Fork, West Virginia. In this program, join other legal professionals for an immersive 3-day retreat designed to radically reimagine the practice of law—from one rooted in conflict to one grounded in healing. Based on Brenda’s recently published book, Becoming a Restorative Lawyer, this workshop is t is for lawyers ready to shift from burnout and adversarial norms toward a restorative approach that centers justice, connection, and well-being. Held in the serene, forested beauty of Elk River Inn & Cabins in Slatyfork, West Virginia, this all-inclusive experience will offer over 20 hours of continuing legal education (CLE) while creating space for deep reflection, practical training, and community building. Through workshops, guided discussion, movement, and nature-based integration, you'll leave with both the mindset and tools to lead systemic change—starting with your own practice. Review a detailed agenda of the program here. The program will also include two short online segments held during the lunch hour, both before and after the retreat.
