“Simply a unique, brilliant accomplishment. Felos has woven into a most gripping, fascinating personal account, that had me spellbound as the best novel, a splendid summary of the best contemporary spiritual understanding and practice, while giving a fascinating insight into contemporary legal practice. I can’t recommend it highly enough. |

“This book could be called ‘God in the Courtroom.’ It is a wonderful and amazing step on the path that our legal system must take if it is to truly heal and resolve the differences that arise between us. This book is a miracle. I am going to call George Felos 'God’s Lawyer' from now on.” |

“At the heart of every conflict, no matter how severe, is a place of peace and stillness which, when accessed, provides true power and genuine healing. In this clearly written and heartfelt book, George J. Felos shows that when this stillness is intentionally accessed in the harsh practice of litigation, miracles happen. Books about spirituality are countless, but this one—fusing the spiritual with the rationality of a skilled attorney's mind—is extraordinary.” |

“Yoga philosophy draws heavily on the analogy of life as a battlefield between the ego and who we are beyond the ego. Telling the story of his real-life battles in the courtroom and reflecting on his inner journey into the practice of the perennial philosophies of yoga and meditation, George Felos offers a fascinating doorway into the inner and outer struggle of the Self.” |

“Litigation as Spiritual Practice is the testimony of George J. Felos, a lawyer who fights for, and believes in his clients’ right to die. Best known for the landmark Florida case that first established a person’s constitutional right to refuse unwanted medical treatment, Felos vividly narrates courtroom drama from an informative and uniquely personal perspective. A dramatic true saga about end-of-life issues and moral rights, Litigation as Spiritual Practice is a welcome and timely contribution to the national dialogue on the personal rights of the terminally ill to choose how and when their lives should end.” |

"Litigation as Spiritual Practice by attorney George Felos, is a trip, no, a roller coaster ride, through the hard work and shenanigans generating our flawed legal system where the outcome is often less about justice than about winning. In a world where everyone laughs at lawyer jokes, can we really believe in a lawyer with integrity and moral courage? Interwoven in a tale of courtroom wrangling and devious ploys is a seeker attempting to keep his own soul intact in the midst of it all. Is he King Arthur, Doctor Kevorkian, God's lawyer, Robin Hood or any of the other names that have been leveled at him? You be the judge. Meanwhile enjoy broadening your understanding about Law and Spirit. Follow his trail and trials through unexpected predicaments in a true story that reads like a novel. The reader is carried on a journey to Hong Kong to help unearth surprising proof that aids his antique dealer client's battle against the government then to the dismal corridors of a nursing home where a woman's wishes to die with dignity are ignored and inwardly to the author's own struggle to seek balance in a competitive profession. Each of his facets is represented when he digs in to deliver the coup de grace to the opposing lawyer whose pomposity has led to his downfall; when he kicks off his Birkenstocks to center himself in Yoga or meditation and when his own doubts are courageously revealed. There is an honesty here that is compelling. Stayed up reading Litigation as Spiritual Practice till 1:30 am then rushed out the next day to initiate my own Living Will." |
