Chicago Lawyers, Revised Edition: The Social Structure of the Bar
ISBN: 9780810111899 / Angielski / Miękka / 260 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The legal profession is stratified primarily by the character of the clients served, not by the type of legal service rendered, as John P. Heinz and Edward O. Laumann convincingly demonstrate. In their classic study of the Chicago bar, the authors draw on interviews with nearly 800 lawyers to show that the profession is divided into two distinct hemispheres--corporate and individual--and that this dichotomy is reflected in the distribution of prestige among lawyers.

In The Vanishing American Lawyer, Professor Thomas Morgan discusses the legal profession and the need for both law students and lawyers to adapt to the needs and expectations of clients in the future. The world needs people who understand institutions that create laws and how to access those institutions' works, but lawyers are no longer part of a profession that is uniquely qualified to advise on a broad range of distinctly legal questions. Clients will need advisors who are more specialized than...

First Thing We Do, Let's Deregulate All the Lawyers
ISBN: 9780815721901 / Angielski / Miękka / 120 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Not many Americans think of the legal profession as a monopoly, but it is. Abraham Lincoln, who practiced law for nearly twenty-five years, would likely not have been allowed to practice today. Without a law degree from an American Bar Association-sanctioned institution, a would-be lawyer is allowed to practice law in only a few states. ABA regulations also prevent even licensed lawyers who work for firms that are not owned and managed by lawyers from providing legal services. At the same time, a slate of government policies has increased the demand for lawyers' services. Basic economics... Not many Americans think of the legal profession as a monopoly, but it is.

Sitting in Judgment
ISBN: 9781849462396 / Angielski / Twarda / 478 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In the UK, the public image of judges has been stuck in a time warp. Judges are invariably depicted in the media and derided in public bars up and down the country as 'privately educated Oxbridge types, ' usually 'out of touch, ' and more often than not viewed as 'old men.' These and other stereotypes have dogged the judiciary long since any of them ceased to have any basis in fact. Indeed, the limited research that was permitted in 1960s and 1970s tended to reinforce several of these stereotypes. Moreover, occasional high profile incidents in the courts - elaborated with the help of...

Clients question and often resist the complexities and uncertainties inherent in law and legal process. Honest advice from the lawyer can make a client doubt his or her allegiance and zeal.

Too often, the lawyer struggles to counsel a particularly difficult client, but to no...
