With clear and concise explanations of all basic concepts in the
law of lawyering and all topics tested on the MPRE, this accessible
book allows professors to satisfy the ABA professional
responsibility requirement with a course that students find highly
engaging and useful. Unlike most professional responsibility
textbooks on the market, however, it links ethics issues to
portraits of the practice contexts in which they typically arise
for real lawyers, helping students appreciate their relevance in
contemporary practice. It also introduces students to the rich
empirical literature on the profession, teaching them about the
profession's overall composition and organization as well as huge
variation in the practice settings, types of work, and daily
experiences of American lawyers and their clients. It describes
powerful economic and cultural forces that are reshaping the legal
profession, and it explores current controversies relating to
access to justice, globalization, technology, diversity, and legal
education. It invites students to reflect on their place in the
profession and how they will navigate the turbulent landscape to
chart successful, rewarding and responsible careers in almost any
type of practice today's law graduates might enter. Most chapters
also contain problems that can be used in class discussion or as
written exercises. The Second Edition is updated to include
problems, materials, and questions drawn from recent events
highlighting professional ethics issues currently in the news. It
also presents the most recent scholarship and commentary on new
challenges for the legal profession posed by technology, litigation
finance, and globalization. This is the only PR book on the market
that provides sufficient explanation of basic legal concepts and
the operation of the legal system to make it suitable for
first-year students, but it also works very well for second and
third year courses. CasebookPlus Hardbound - New, hardbound print
book includes lifetime digital access to an eBook, with the ability
to highlight and take notes, and 12-month access to a digital
Learning Library that includes self-assessment quizzes tied to this
book, leading study aids, an outline starter, and Gilbert Law
Dictionary.
