This comprehensive collection offers legal professionals the essential tools to understand, navigate, and transform conflict in all its forms. Blending theory with real-world application, each chapter addresses the specific challenges lawyers face—whether in client relationships, team dynamics, or complex, cross-border disputes. Readers will gain a practical foundation in conflict analysis and a wide range of resolution strategies that extend well beyond litigation.

Of particular application are chapters on interpersonal conflict management, advanced legal research, negotiation, Indigenous approaches to conflict resolution, mediation, and international arbitration. Designed for both seasoned practitioners and those in training, this book equips readers with skills they can immediately apply in their legal work.

With its interdisciplinary lens and practical focus, the collection empowers lawyers to move from reaction to resolution—ensuring that conflicts are addressed constructively, ethically, and to the satisfaction of all involved.

Dr. Richard Jochelson is Dean of the Faculty of Law at the University of Manitoba. A prolific scholar and dedicated educator, Dr. Jochelson brings a passion for justice, pedagogy, and interdisciplinary insight to his work—and picks up his guitar whenever he can.
