Description


The Education of a Lawyer is a delightful read that provides invaluable advice about the practice of law. Written for aspiring and young attorneys, the book is a font of wisdom on a range of topics: legal writing, speaking, handling clients, staying current on the law, and managing all the relationships typically encountered by lawyers.

Derived from the author's decades of experience as a lawyer and teacher, the book is filled with stories and telling anecdotes. Some are hilarious, some are cautionary, but nearly all contain a nugget of practical insight that readers can apply to their own practice.

Specific topics include:

  • How to speak effectively to any type of group
  • Techniques to polish your writing and create more useful legal documents and correspondence
  • Manage relationships with judges, opposing counsel, your local legal community, and clients
  • How to stay current on the law
  • Improve your legal skills throughout your career

Decidedly original and consistently entertaining, The Education of a Lawyer will make readers laugh, think, and nod in recognition. And most importantly, it will help readers to become better lawyers.

Book was published September 2014.
