Law School

by Messinger, Thane

To get straight to the point, Law School: Getting In, Getting Good, Getting the Gold ("GGG") is, without a doubt, one of the most important law school and legal career books currently available...

Later-in-Life Lawyers (2nd Ed.)

by Cooper, Charles

Law schools are, by their nature, traditional in attitude and in structure. Most books about law school take the same approach: they do not address the unique needs of the significant nontraditional segment of their student body. Other law school books focus on largely irrelevant factors such as rankings and employment in “prestigious” law firms...

Malice in Wonderland

by Hatter, Thaddeus

Many law school books suffer from the same tired formula: long, complicated, and boring. Reading these books is a chore. Malice in Wonderland is an honest guide to law school. Now the reader is a journey into law school (i.e., Wonderland) by a tour guide, Uncle Malice. Drawing upon his own mistakes and shenanigans, Malice enlightens...

by Finn, Erika

Thousands of law students thus graduate each year without a job, without any prospects, and without the faintest idea how to land their first job with a law firm...

The Art of the Law School Transfer

by Carrabis, Andrew

Transferring from one law school to another is like painting a delicate and complicated panorama, moving from one scene (one’s current law school) to a new one (the law school of one’s dreams). There are the technical elements, sure: certain methods and steps must be done at certain, specific times, and in certain ways...

Law School Fast Track

by Hibbard, Derrick

For a law student, numerous and massive assignments loom from the very first day—with no let-up until final exams—and with zero feedback until those finals. Law students wonder where to begin, how to begin, and what to do each day. Law School Fast Track is unique in its format: short, fast, inexpensive, and easy-to-read...

Jagged Rocks of Wisdom

by Lund, Morten

A new job is scary. A new job as an attorney is scary times two: the challenges are both substantive (as in actually knowing the law), as well as procedural (as in knowing how to act like an attorney). In this professional transition, many, many new attorneys fall by the wayside. This book is a guide to keep the new attorney on track...

Jagged Rocks of Wisdom—The Memo

by Lund, Morten

This book focuses on one of the most complex aspects of professional work for a new attorney: researching, drafting, and refining the crucially important legal memorandum...

Jagged Rocks of Wisdom—Negotiation

by Lund, Morten
