"Welcome and thank you for visiting Amber Law, a Holistic law firm which sees the human being behind each client, not just their legal problem and provides gentle pathways to resolution and healing"
As Seen In...
Amber Turner BSc (Hons) LLM founded Gibraltar’s first Holistic Law Firm, Amber Law in March 2013. Qualified as a UK Barrister and Acting Solicitor (1998), Raja Yoga Teacher (2009), Mediator (2014), trained in Non-Violent Communication (2017) and practising Mindfulness, Amber draws on her experience of 17 years in litigation and a combination of well-being and healing tools, to create her unique model of Holistic Law Practice.
Today she is a consultant, guest speaker at universities and conferences, and writes and designs innovative training programs applying her Holistic Model- a humane, compassionate, just and pioneering approach to law study and practice.
When I founded Amber Law in 2013, it was to create the first Holistic Law firm that I knew of. I wanted to create a law firm with a difference, one which sees the human being behind each client, and not just their legal problem, or potential for fee earning! A law firm that supports clients at all levels; mentally, emotionally, physically and spiritually.
My mission statement in 2013 was 'to positively transform family life', because behind every legal problem is a human who suffers stress, anxiety and even depression.
Connected to that human is a family; a biological one, or a chosen one of friends and colleagues who will also be detrimentally affected.
I consider it my duty of care towards my clients to resolve their legal problem as peaceably as possible; guide them to discover the underlying reason(s) why they came to have a legal problem; and provide external support through my Client Well-being Network, empowering their transformational journeys to clarity, peace and healing. Peace and healing which will resonate within their families in the 'ripple effect'. My Mission is to teach law students and lawyers how to become Holistic lawyers practising law in well-being and invite you to join our School.

What our Clients & Collaborators say about us
Former client Daphne Galia
"Amber always gave the best advice because when she decided to do something it always brought out a positive result… Amber worked with … positive emotions… positive feelings and positive energy… her input was amazing."
Omar Madhloom, SFHEA FRSA Senior Lecturer/ Solicitor University of Bristol Law School
"Amber Turner's online lecture on holistic lawyering to the University of Bristol was both interesting and informative. Amber highlighted important issues facing lawyering such as well-being and dealing with clients in a compassionate manner. The student feedback for this lecture was very positive and the aim is for this to become a regular event in the Clinic calendar... "
Nalanie Chellaram, International Yoga Teacher
"Amber is a switched-on, dynamic and caring person, qualities she brings in abundance to her work as a family lawyer. In today’s world where many professions put monetary gains ahead of co-operation and working harmoniously, Amber’s motivation is first and foremost to ensure the best possible outcome is reached for all parties concerned."
Former client Joey Baglietto
“…It was like climbing Mount Everest without an oxygen bottle on my back. Amber was very sensitive and human with me from the first interview which was very emotional. She treated me like a person, like a friend from day one… not like a client.”

Client Speaking Engagements
Speaking Engagements gives me the opportunity to share with you, together with case examples:
- My knowledge and expertise of over 20 years as a Barrister, Acting Solicitor Mediator and as a Holistic Lawyer together with the very real, positive, life transforming results of practicing law 'Holistically', both for my and my clients' mental, emotional, physical and spiritual wellbeing;
- What is Holistic Law and what tools you can learn and include in your 'toolbox';
- Introduction to the Global Integrative Law Movement and how to become an active participant.
All Speaking Engagements include an opportunity for you to ask me questions.
Speaking Engagements can be tailor-made according to your/ your organisations' interests and needs.
I am passionate about and have made it my life mission to support individuals, families and organisations in resolving their legal problems and disputes by using my Holistic Law Model.
This non-adversarial process sees the human being behind the legal problem or dispute and offers clients and their loved ones an opportunity to achieve positive life transformation and healing with the support of our professional Client Well-being Network.
My belief is that addressing the legal problem alone is going short of providing clients with a real chance of attaining wellbeing or of avoiding a repetition of similar negative and harmful situations in the future. I therefore deem it my moral and social responsibility to also facilitate solutions to the personal challenges that led to, or resulted from, the legal problem or dispute.
This is what I share in my Speaking Engagements- that is, how exactly this is achieved.
I am a Barrister and Acting Solicitor, called to the Honourable Society of the Middle Temple (London) in 1998 and a UK Accredited Interpersonal Mediator (with UK Mediation) since 2014.
