Book Synopsis Letters to a Young Lawer by : Alan Dershowitz
Download or read book Letters to a Young Lawer written by Alan Dershowitz and published by ReadHowYouWant.com. This book was released on 2009-12 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As defender of both the righteous and the questionable, Alan Dershowitz has become perhaps the most famous and outspoken attorney in the land. Whether or not they agree with his legal tactics, most people would agree that he possesses a powerful and profound sense of justice. In this meditation on his profession, Dershowitz writes about life, law, and the opportunities that young lawyers have to do good and do well at the same time. We live in an age of growing dissatisfaction with law as a career, which ironically comes at a time of unprecedented wealth for many lawyers. Dershowitz addresses this paradox, as well as the uncomfortable reality of working hard for clients who are often without many redeeming qualities. He writes about the lure of money, fame, and power, as well as about the seduction of success. In the process, he conveys some of the ''tricks of the trade'' that have helped him win cases and become successful at the art and practice of ''lawyering.''

Book Synopsis A Guide for Young Lawyers (and Others) by : Kaamil Ansar
Download or read book A Guide for Young Lawyers (and Others) written by Kaamil Ansar and published by Outskirts Press. This book was released on 2019-12-16 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book applies to young lawyers starting out in practice (and others). The principles in this book reflect the author's experiences over 38 years (being admitted to practice in three jurisdictions) in a transactional and litigation practice on multiple continents. This book is applicable to young business lawyers. The book is lawyer-specific with an emphasis on a U.S. transactional or litigation practice. However, the general principles described have universal application to any lawyer anywhere that is starting-out in practice, any young person considering a career in the law or starting out in his or her career, or any person anywhere looking to get to the next level. The book introduces the reader to a number of personalities from the world of professional sports that have in all cases achieved stunning successes in their careers and each represents the triumph of the human spirit. Their experiences are highlighted from time to time and are significant and very relevant to the reader and the book. The fundamental premise of the book is that there is no sense in trying to learn all the lessons of life the hard way - from one's own personal experience. It is much more efficient to learn from the experience of others who have been successful in competitive situations. The author places much importance on some of the experiences of the wonderful personalities that are conveyed to the reader in the book. Their experiences include competing and winning and losing at the highest levels in professional sports, among other facets, and complement substantially all the principles and objectives of this book. The author believes these experiences will enrich the reader's journey as it progresses in the book and will add much value to the development of the reader's practice. The author believes that the work the reader puts into achieving the objectives of this book will be hugely beneficial to the reader over the long-term. The book will describe to the reader the principles that it needs to focus on to reach the next level in his or her career and will provide the necessary guidance. By the end of the book, the reader will find that each of these principles will be self-fulfilling and reinforce each other and provide the reader with a solid foundation for future success.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This inspiring book, Lawyers, Guns, and Money by Carol X. Vinzant, recounts the heroic efforts of Tom McDermott, a lawyer and victim of the infamous Colin Ferguson rampage on the Long Island Railroad, to take on the gun industry. He is among the leaders of an innovative and promising strategy to circumvent the NRA's political power and courts constrained by interpretations of the Second Amendment. Through civil action he hits the gun companies where it hurts most: the bottom line. Making insurance difficult for manufacturers to get, he has helped reduce the number of cheap hand guns, "Saturday Night Specials," often used in crime. This is a riveting account of tragedy turned into action, and how the law can be used to defend victims rather than enrich corporations.

Following the success of her three-book Best Friends at that Bar series, Ms. Blakely shifts her focus to millennial lawyers who are the future of the law profession. This book is for: Law students to understand current practices, what needs to be changed, and how to fit into an evolving profession; Law firm associates to validate their instincts about outdated law firm policies and toxic law firm cultures; and Law firm leaders to understand millennial lawyers and to make the necessary changes to law firm cultures to retain talent and lead them into the next quarter of the 21st century. Through extensive research about millennial lawyers and by millennial lawyers as well as entertaining and inspirational stories of lawyers from a generation past, Blakely makes a case that demonstrates a healthier path forward for a profession in transition—a path enriched by recapture of the values and beliefs, which successfully guided lawyers of the Greatest Generation. The message is that bad habits and toxic environments are not beyond repair if we listen to the voices of a new generation of lawyers and help them—and us—find a better way forward. You will learn: The facts about millennial lawyers; The values that millennial lawyers bring to the profession; What millennial lawyers want from law practice; The challenge for law firms to initiate change to retain and develop millennial lawyers; and Lessons from real life stories demonstrating values lost but not forgotten.
