Book Synopsis The Law Firm and the Public Good by : Robert A. Katzmann
Download or read book The Law Firm and the Public Good written by Robert A. Katzmann and published by Brookings Institution Press. This book was released on 2010-12-01 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What can law firms do to ensure justice for all? How can they serve the needs of those unable to pay? How can law firms improve the quality of life for their lawyers? At a time when government support for legal aid is limited and under fire, when recent U.S. presidents have urged increased volunteerism, when the American Bar Association's Law Firm Pro Bono Challenge is under way, and when some within the legal profession have called for mandatory pro bono work, this new book examines these important questions. The Law Firm and the Public Good blends academic scholarship with real world experience as it brings together lawyers who have wrestled with the pressures of everyday practice. Concerned about deepening the commitment of large law firms to the wider community, the authors seek to provide a blueprint for firms concerned with creating, developing, implementing, and evaluating pro bono programs. Moving beyond the ethical arguments which justify a law firm's commitment to community service, the authors argue that pro bono work is in the firm's self-interest. They show that a heightened concern with the public good can improve a lawyer's spirit, sharpen lawyering skills, and enhance the humanistic traditions of law practice. They conclude that professional responsibility and self-interest support the same conclusion: that the law firm and the public good are inextricably linked and that each can draw strength from the other in ways that nourish both.

Book Synopsis From the Margins to the Core by : Russell Engler

Book excerpt: The call for law schools to increase their role in supporting public interest and pro bono legal work has grown stronger over the past decade. In 1997, The American Association of Law Schools (AALS) appointed a Commission on Pro Bono and Public Service Opportunities to explore the issue. The Commission's findings and proposals were published in 1999. In response to the Commission's findings, the AALS created a Pro Bono and Public Service Section. The AALS also launched its Pro Bono Project, which collected data on programs at over 150 law schools. In 2001, the Project published A Handbook of Law School Pro Bono Programs, making available the collected data.The information from law schools reflects significant changes in their pro bono, public interest and public service programs. In 1997, only twelve law schools had some type of graduation requirement related to pro bono or public service work. By 2005, that figure had risen to thirty.Public interest and pro bono programs are a source of pride at many law schools, and a selling point in law school marketing. Law school catalogs and websites often display their school's pro bono and public interest work prominently. The organization Equal Justice Works developed a survey of law school public interest and pro bono programs to help prospective law students evaluate the different programs.This essay explores some of the questions involved in designing or modifying such a program. After noting confusion that arises by the use of different labels for the programs, the essay focuses on the need to identify goals in designing the program, factors to be considered in choosing particular goals and the values a school communicates in labeling and designing its program. The next section uses my law school, New England School of Law in Boston, as a case study to illustrate the successes and challenges a school faces in putting together a program. The essay concludes with recommendations regarding whether to limit the program to volunteer work, how to decide what types of placements will be approved, and whether the program should be voluntary or mandatory.
