Popis: Despite a growing focus on wellbeing in the legal profession and growing concerns regarding lawyer wellbeing, the literature is complex and contradictory. There is a need to collate the full scope of literature that accounts for factors which impact lawyer wellbeing and identify the complexity of the issue. This protocol outlines processes for conducting a systematic scoping review of lawyer wellbeing and the contributing factors and outcomes. A search string will be used to search EBSCOHost, CAB Direct, Ovid and Informit electronic databases. Articles will be screened and selected according to inclusion/exclusion criteria applied at the title, abstract and full-text levels. Included articles will be inductively assessed and data will be extracted according to methodological type and presented in summary. The findings of this systematic scoping review are intended to inform the current breadth of the literature pertaining to relevant factors regarding lawyer wellbeing. This systematic scoping review will present recommendations for future systematic literature reviews, and considerations when conducting research in the field of lawyer wellbeing.
