The Boston Legal Aid Society, 1900-1925, Mark Spiegel
Mark Spiegel
This article examines the history of the Boston Legal Aid Society from its founding in 1900 through 1925. In so doing I explore why was Boston Legal Aid started.

What were the forces that led to the founding of this organization at that point in time? Was it part of the effort …

However, how the terms “theory” and “practice” are defined strongly influences how various aspects of legal education are perceived.

The Article first traces the development of the informed-consent doctrine and then considers the extent to which current legal doctrines and professional norms incorporate informed consent between lawyers and their clients. Professor Spiegel suggests that the predominant focus of informed consent is on a lawyer’s power to bind his client vis-à-vis third parties and advocates for the development of an informed-consent doctrine that accounts for the interests of all parties involved. Professor Spiegel concludes with a discussion of the application of his …
