What We're Not Telling Law Students - And Lawyers - That They Really Need to Know: Some Thoughts-in-Action Toward Revitalizing the Profession from Its Roots
Year: 1998
Type: article
Abstract: Part I of this article sets forth a generally encouraging set of propositions about student and attorney life that I have found to be true. If they are, law students and lawyers need to hear them repeatedly. They collectively represent an approach to life and law which, to the extent it is internalized, can increase life satisfaction, raise standards of professional behavior, and relieve many of the kinds of distress that law students and lawyers are prone to experience. Some students seem to bring much of this information with them to law school years and after, do not lose sight of it. But many others either do not arrive so equipped, or are separated from their beliefs as their education proceeds.
