• Well-law aligns with the recent amendment to ABA standard 508, which creates a requirement that law schools provide students with well-being resources.

• Great question!  Well-Law founder, Janet Thompson Jackson, understands that sentiment.  As a busy and often overwhelmed law student, Janet struggled to adopt healthy stress-management tools during law school.  While academically successful, her well-being suffered.  Then, as a lawyer, nonprofit executive, law professor, wife, mom, and community volunteer, Janet learned through experience how integrating bite-sized wellness practices into her daily life helped her to effectively manage stress, gain clearer focus, and thrive.  In fact, she found that consistently incorporating even moments of wellness practices on a regular basis actually saves time and increases her productivity!  Janet created the Well-Law app to help equip law students and legal professionals with stress-management tools that are always within their reach.
