Based loosely on the medical school model, the law school firm will help bridge the gap between law schools and the practice of law.

These costs combine with the problem of a deficiency in academic training and post-graduation financing of additional training in the workplace to impose a growing …

This essay answers an important question underlying these considerations: What can legal education do to better train business lawyers and regulators for a market that is becoming more complex?
