Hi, my name is Duane Light
In my more than 25 years as an attorney, including in trial, arbitration and mediation, I've handled a wide variety of cases.
As a certified meditation teacher and Integrative Restoration practitioner, I help my clients overcome the stress of litigation.
MY STORY: I am so fortunate to have recovered from an abusive childhood, where I was emotionally and physically traumatized by an alcoholic, ex-Marine step-father. In my early years I suffered from low self-esteem, anxiety, anger and depression, all of which limited and saddened my life. Even in college,
After years of guidance from excellent teachers, workshops, trainings, meditation retreats, breathwork, movement and coaching, I've evolved to have a more joyful life. In addition, I've become successful in court as a holistic attorney.
So with this unique combination of skills, my specialty is helping people who are suffering from Legal Stress Syndrome (LSS).
I've taken hundreds of clients and witnesses from feeling frightened, stressed and overwhelmed to confident and persuasive.
I had one client transform her fear and exhaustion to being appointed as an Expert Witness by the judge in the middle of the trial! (this is incredibly rare). She won the case for the good parent. The outcome was extremely rewarding.
Hi, my name is Duane Light
I've handled a wide variety of cases in my more than 25 years as an attorney, including in trial, arbitration and mediation.
I also became a certified meditation teacher and emotional work facilitator so I could help my clients overcome the stress and strains of litigation.
MY STORY: I am so fortunate to have recovered from an abusive childhood, where I was emotionally and physically traumatized by an alcoholic, ex-Marine step-father. In my early years I suffered from low self-esteem, anxiety and depression, all of which greatly limited and saddened my life. Even in college, I was not able to present a paper without my voice shaking.
After years of emotional workshops and trainings, long meditation retreats, breathwork, movement therapy and coaching, I've evolved to have a mostly deeply satisfying life, as well as becoming successful in court as a holistic attorney.

The Quality of Your Presence Will Affect the Outcome of Your Case
In a close case, a judge and jury will rule
for people they like and trust.
Transform fear, anger or depression so they don't come out at the worst time. Fear paralyzes you. Depression leads to brain fog. Anger outbursts can kill your case.
Create positive attitudes toward the legal system, attorneys and judges so you can be authentic, friendly and persuasive.
Avoid costly mistakes - learn how to prepare intelligently for your Big Legal Event (deposition, court hearing, mediation, trial, etc.).
Remember that what I offer here is coaching and training, not legal advice.
I can provide detailed information on resources for you to obtain legal information or assistance including free attorney consultations.
Give Yourself the Best Chance to Win Your Case
Benefit from my insider knowledge and guidance based on my 25+ years as a licensed attorney and 6 years as a certified meditation teacher and an Integrative Restoration practitioner.
When you appear at a deposition, mediation, court hearing or trial with calm confidence and properly prepared, you'll have an exponentially higher probability of success.
Learn How to Effectively Navigate Your Case
Do your best in discovery, deposition, negotiation, mediation, court hearings, arbitration or trial by understanding the system, preparing correctly and cultivating resiliance, authenticity and likability.
I've seen people in a moment of weakness or emotional overwhelm greatly harm or even lose their case. I want to help you avoid those mistakes.
Take Advantage of this Incredible Value
I charge $275/hr. for individual coaching. For weekly access to me, the base price will be $39/month after 12/01/2021.
With this special offer, OPEN UNTIL MIDNIGHT Pacific Time, December 20, 2021, YOU CAN LOCK IN THIS SPECIAL PRICE OF $29 / MONTH, $79 / QUARTELY or $269 / YEAR (good for as long as you maintain membership).
THE PRICE WILL NEVER BE THIS LOW AGAIN
The work that Duane did with me has changed the nature of my relationships with people in positions of authority that used to intimidate me, such as the IRS and insurance adjustors. It didn’t just change a skill set, it changed a mindset for me and opened my heart to people that I had been afraid of.
I would have never in my life-time thought that I would gain spiritual awareness while dealing with a legal matter. Thank you so much for being the one to re-presence me to my heart!
I felt very safe over the entire period of time it took for this process to unfold. I certainly learned a lot about letting go and trusting everything does work out if one can manage to find that quiet inner space and rest there when dealing with life's challenges.
The value of this personal access is thousands of dollars
If you personally hired me for 4 hours the cost to you would be $1,100.00. You can ask a question by advance email anytime. As a partner-level attorney I've charged $500/hr. for litigation. You not only receive the benefit of my extensive experience and knowledge, but you also receive the benefits of my additional training and certifications.
Your cost, if you tried to do this on your own, would be much higher, because you would have to hire four different people: an experienced high-level attorney, a meditation teacher, a certified emotional work facilitator and a professionally trained coach.
I provide all four roles, under the umbrella of coaching and teaching.
I am the only attorney / coach / teacher offering this depth of service.
By joining this group membership, you'll receive my support for a fraction of the usual cost.
Remember that I am not acting as your attorney and can not and will not give legal advice. If you need legal advice, please consult with an attorney in your area, or ask me in a weekly call how to find and hire an attorney, while keeping costs as low as possible.
Duane brings compassion and wisdom to his work. He offers creative solutions and is so fun to work with. He really is a light!
Duane has a way of being that is just fabulous. The inner work he did with me was really effective.
I have on each and every occasion been SO impressed with your wise and non-violent approach to these knotty legal and family communication issues

Here's What More of My Clients Say...
Anything with the law is so triggering. Sometimes we need someone to help us suss out what’s happening. You’ve helped me navigate some of the most challenging times in my life. You’re in a league of your own as far as attorneys go. It’s really refreshing - a great hope for what the legal community can be. Thank you so much.
Jennifer Gaynor-Yaker
I can definitely feel a difference, I’m paying less attention to my mind, a big piece. Awesome, lovely, I loved it. I read thru the notes again, dropped in, that felt really good, checking in to see if there was any residue. There was very, very little. Perfect. Just by you holding the space and guiding, it was incredible.
Thank you for taking the time to listen so fully yesterday. At times, it has been difficult for me to maintain a balanced, loving stance in this situation rather than attempting to make things “right." I feel a sense of peace to know that you are involved.
I left our session feeling so happy and relieved. I am finally seeing myself inside the framework of a legal structure that I can live with, and understand, and feel myself in integrity with. Such a blessing!
My experience with Duane has shown him to be authentic about getting to the core of an issue beyond just the legal aspect, and into the psycho-spiritual issues that never fail to accompany legal entanglements. As I worked through my issue, I was left with a feeling of confidence where before it was overwhelming and emotionally charged.
Duane helped me so much when I was recovering from surgery, and an angry landlord was trying to kick me out. He coached me on how to write a firm yet polite letter to protect my rental for another month, and also protect myself from the anger outbursts and intimidation. It worked! So grateful for his guidance with this.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can you give me legal advice?
I can educate you about how the legal system works, direct you to resources, and help you overcome overwhelm and empower yourself. As a professional life coach and meditation teacher, I offer a variety of meditations and practices so you can be more calm, clear, and effective.
Are you a licensed therapist?
I'm a certified Integrative Restoration (iRest) teacher and practitioner. This is a guided, meditative process that takes you compassionately into your mind and emotions in order to help you develop inner calm, strength and clarity. I am not a licensed therapist. If you feel that you need counseling or other therapies in addition to or in place of the iRest processes, you can work with a licensed therapist or other individual of your choice.
What led you into becoming a holistic attorney and coach?
First, for four years I was in a family where I was physically and emotionally abused by an alcoholic step-father. I've worked on myself for decades to overcome the anxiety, depression, anger and self-worth issues that came from that. So when I work with someone on these deep issues, they can feel and know that I've been there and worked through these debilitating emotions. Also, my meditation practice and spiritual life have led me to want to help my clients transform their everyday lives as well as their case.
Can I get a refund if this doesn't work for me?
I offer a full refund if by the end of Day 8 you find that this is not helpful for you.
Can I record the Zoom calls?
No. You can take notes only. This provides confidentiality for you and for other participants. The workshop is copyrighted and only I can record it.
Can you help me win my case?
I've found that as I coach and educate people they usually make better decisions and are able to perform more effectively in discovery, depositions, mediations, court hearings, etc. At the same time, I can't guarantee that any person will win a case. My job is to help you be more calm, intelligently prepared, and persuasive.
What if I can't afford to hire a lawyer?
Some attorneys will provide free legal advice, at least in an initial consultation. And I like to recommend books by Nolo Press. Nolo is a consumer-oriented publisher with more than 100 books on specific legal issues and needs. Find them at www.Nolo.com. Also, Paralegals in many States can assist you with some documents and procedures.
If I send a question to you privately in writing, will it be confidential?
Yes, completely. I will not use your name or your city, or too many personal details. I might mention your State (unless you ask me not to). I will usually generalize the question or rephrase it before I comment on it so it can be useful for many people.
What do you think of law in general - is it corrupt or only for the wealthy?
I have mixed feelings. At its core, law is about the Golden Rule - doing unto others as we would have done to ourselves. So law's true values are truth, good relationships, treating each other well, fair business practices, and equality for all. It also has elements of empathy, compassion and forgiveness (for example, collaborative family law, and restorative justice in criminal law). I've found that most judges try to do the right thing. On a practical level, law is very complex - less than 5% of lawyers do trials because it's so complicated. And the system can be manipulated and abused by dishonest attorneys. More than 80% of people can't afford an attorney for a large case. This is one reason that I'm offering this support - to help people do the best they can at a very reasonable cost.
