Melissa Kelly and Deborah Baxter founded The Modern Family Law Company with the aim of doing things better. Having both worked as solicitors with local authorities, Melissa and Deborah know how psychologically taxing legal work can be. The Modern Family Law Company flipped that script, and aims for better outcomes for legal practitioners and clients alike.

In this episode of Humans of Law, Louise Anderson speaks with Melissa Kelly and Deborah Baxter about mental health and wellbeing in the law, inclusion in the workplace and what The Modern Family Law Company aims to do differently.
