Download or read book Lawyers in Practice written by Leslie C. Levin and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2012-03-30 with total page 401 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How do lawyers resolve ethical dilemmas in the everyday context of their practice? What are the issues that commonly arise, and how do lawyers determine the best ways to resolve them? Until recently, efforts to answer these questions have focused primarily on rules and legal doctrine rather than the real-life situations lawyers face in legal practice. The first book to present empirical research on ethical decision making in a variety of practice contexts, including corporate litigation, securities, immigration, and divorce law, Lawyers in Practice fills a substantial gap in the existing literature. Following an introduction emphasizing the increasing importance of understanding context in the legal profession, contributions focus on ethical dilemmas ranging from relatively narrow ethical issues to broader problems of professionalism, including the prosecutor’s obligation to disclose evidence, the management of conflicts of interest, and loyalty to clients and the court. Each chapter details the resolution of a dilemma from the practitioner’s point of view that is, in turn, set within a particular community of practice. Timely and practical, this book should be required reading for law students as well as students and scholars of law and society.

Download or read book The Smarter Legal Model written by Trevor Faure and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 157 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Smarter Legal Model is a practical toolbox of complementary methodologies which have been applied on a multi-million dollar scale and proven to: *Reduce legal costs. *Increase the legal work covered without increasing cost or headcount, by maximising individual potential. *Improve both compliance and client satisfaction at the same time. *Replace the traditional law firm-client tension with a mutually profitable partnership. The Smarter Legal Model applies world-class business and behavioral principles, such as Six Sigma, return on invested capital, zero-sum game theory and neuro-linguistic programming to the practice of law for the first time with tangible results. Recently reported benefits of the Model include a 27% reduction in legal fees, a 60% reduction in litigation volume and demonstrable improvements in client satisfaction. The Smarter Legal Model will be of use to in-house lawyers, private practitioners and even professionals from non-legal disciplines. The Smarter Legal Model has been adopted by major concerns and has been the subject of extensive analysis across the world. The Author has lectured on the Model at Harvard Law School, Oxford University, Georgetown Law School; in Washington, New York, London, Amsterdam, Brussels, Stockholm and Sydney.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this, the Thirteenth edition of Stephen Gillers’ book, Regulation of Lawyers: Problems of Law and Ethics, the author’s goal, as always, is to teach the law and rules governing lawyers and judges with engaging writing and a conversational voice. To that end, he sprinkles the text with literary and historical references, references to current events, amplifying asides (“by the way” stories), and humor. There are new cases, and some repeat cases have been further edited. New problems have been added, and some former problems have been revised to better crystalize their issues. As always, the problems aim for credibility through detail. In addition to the self-study questions and answers, most chapters now contain one or two short “Pop-up Questions” with answers a few pages later. The clarity of notes on secondary issues makes it possible to assign these with little need for class discussion, freeing time for the principal lessons. New to the Thirteenth Edition: New cases and materials on: The formation of the attorney-client relationship The elements of competency, including cultural competency Privilege and confidentiality and their exceptions Allocation of authority between lawyer and client Discipline for inflating bills Screening to prevent imputation of lateral lawyer conflicts The interplay between Rules 1.7(a)(2) and 1.8(a) Prosecutorial misconduct A lawyer’s responsibility for real evidence, such as weapons Rule 8.4(g) The Supreme Court’s decision in 303 Creative Client identity in the corporate context (U.S. v. Elizabeth Holmes) Discipline for lying to the public (Rudolph Giuliani and Jenna Ellis) Litigation funding. “Pop-up Questions” (and answers) in most chapters Benefits for instructors and students: High-profile author—Professor Gillers is a highly visible and recognized national authority on professional responsibility Comprehensive coverage—includes the full range of professional responsibility issues Excellent case selection Manageable length Well-balanced mix of cases, secondary sources, and timely materials—often drawn from recent headlines, and which supports its comprehensive coverage of professional responsibility issues Realistic, helpful, and abundant problems—many based on actual events, and which facilitate class discussion and enable students to understand the rules and regulations that will govern their professional behavior Detailed and challenging notes—providing in-depth treatment of the issues Accessible and engaging style—characterized by variety, clarity, and humor Discussion beyond the rules and from different perspectives—to recognize that the law is not necessarily self-evident and covers many subtleties

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite international conventions and human rights declarations, millions of people have suffered and continue to suffer torture, slavery, or violent deaths, with no remedy or recourse. They have fallen, in essence, “below the law,” outside of law’s protection. Often violated by their own governments, sometimes with support from transnational corporations, or nations benefiting from human rights violations, how can these victims find justice? Lawyers Beyond Borders reveals the inner workings of the advances and retreats in the quest for redress and restoration of human rights for those whom international legal-political systems have failed. The process of justice begins in the US, with a handful of human rights lawyers steeped in the American tradition of advancing civil rights through civil litigation. As the civil rights movement gained traction and an ample supply of lawyers, this small cadre turned their attention toward advancing international human rights, via the US legal system. They sought to build another piece of the rights revolution, this time for survivors of egregious human rights violations in faraway lands. These cases were among the most unlikely to be slated for victory: The abuses occurred abroad; the victims are aliens, usually with few, if any, resources; the perpetrators are politically powerful, resourced, and well connected, often members of governments, militaries, or multinational corporations. The legal and political systems’ structures are mostly stacked against these survivors, many who bear the scars of trauma and terror. Lawyers Beyond Borders is about agency. It is about how, in the face of powerful interests and seemingly insurmountable obstacles—political, psychological, economic, geographical, and physical—a small group of lawyers and survivors navigated a terrain of daunting barriers to begin building, case-by-case, new pathways to justice for those who otherwise would have none.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Treatise on Attorneys and Counsellors at Law: Comprising the Rules and Legal Principles Applicable to the Vocation of the Lawyer, and Those Governing the Relation of Attorney and Client Except incidentally, the rules and legal principles gov erning attorneys and counsellors at law in their vocation and in their professional relations with their clients, have hitherto met with but little attention from law-writers. I believe there is not now in general use any work especially devoted to the subject, and no one has, so far as I am aware, either professed or attempted to take an exhaustive view of this branch of the law. Yet a table of some five thousand cases, cited in this volume, and nearly all of which are in some way directly applicable to attorneys and counsellors at law, should seem to indicate that questions in regard to the subject-matter have commanded the attention and called for the adjudication of courts with considerable frequency; and that lawyers have been in the past, and 'doubtless will be in the future, by no means exempt from litigation wherein they figure not as attorneys alone, but as parties litigant, by reason of their profession. It has occurred to the writer that an exclusive treatise, attempting to present the law governing the attorney as an officer of the court and as the representative of his client, would be of convenience to the profession, and perhaps in some degree lessen its labors, and assist its members in arriving more readily at a just ascertainment of their own rights and lia bilities, in their relations to court and client. The reader will perhaps be not displeased if the general design of the work is now disclosed in its more prominent outlines.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the past several decades, the number of lawyers in large cities has doubled, women have entered the bar at an unprecedented rate, and the scale of firms has greatly expanded. This immense growth has transformed the nature and social structure of the legal profession. In the most comprehensive analysis of the urban bar to date, Urban Lawyers presents a compelling portrait of how these changes continue to shape the field of law today. Drawing on extensive interviews with Chicago lawyers, the authors demonstrate how developments in the profession have affected virtually every aspect of the work and careers of urban lawyers-their relationships with clients, job tenure and satisfaction, income, social and political values, networks of professional connections, and patterns of participation in the broader community. Yet despite the dramatic changes, much remains the same. Stratification of income and power based on gender, race, and religious background, for instance, still maintains inequality within the bar. The authors of Urban Lawyers conclude that organizational priorities will likely determine the future direction of the legal profession. And with this landmark study as their guide, readers will be able to make their own informed predictions.
