Book Review Of A Radical Lawyer In Victorian England: W. P. Roberts And The Struggle For Workers' Rights By Raymond Challinor, W. Wesley Pue
Book Review Of A Radical Lawyer In Victorian England: W. P. Roberts And The Struggle For Workers' Rights By Raymond Challinor, W. Wesley Pue
All Faculty Publications
This essay assesses the history of one of Britain's most important lawyers for the working class through a critical review of Raymond Challinor's ground-breaking work. The life of W. P. Roberts spanned crucial decades of the nineteenth Century. Admitted to the lower branch of the legal profession in Bath in 1827 W. P. Roberts converted from Toryism in the first decade of his professional life to emerge as a leading figure in the Bath Working Men's Association by 1837. Apparently motivated by a deeply-held Christian belief in an essential human dignity, Roberts' consistently employed the law as a shield in …
Capturing The Literature Of The Bar: A Proposal For Library Package Plans, Georgia Briscoe
Capturing The Literature Of The Bar: A Proposal For Library Package Plans, Georgia Briscoe
Publications
Publications of state and local bar associations are difficult for libraries to acquire and maintain because bar associations' publication activities are often not centralized. Standing orders or package plans will enhance services of bar associations. The American Bar Association and Illinois State Bar Association offer models for other states to follow.

Rethinking Work Product, Elizabeth G. Thornburg
Rethinking Work Product, Elizabeth G. Thornburg
Faculty Journal Articles and Book Chapters
This article analyzes the traditional and law & economics explanations purporting to justify the exclusion of work product materials from discovery. It argues that none of these arguments are well founded and that, instead, the privilege increases costs and decreases the system's ability to produce appropriate settlements and accurate fact finding. To the extent that the privilege serves legitimate ends, narrower and more narrowly tailored protections would provide the necessary protection.

Making Sense Of Criminal Law, James Boyd White
Making Sense Of Criminal Law, James Boyd White
Book Chapters
When a student comes to law school, he leaves behind a world he knows and understands and turns to another world, that of the law, which at the beginning he cannot comprehend. He is immersed in a body of literature that is at once assertive and confusing; he attends a series of classes in which his teacher seems to make the unsettling assumption that he already knows what he came to learn. One question he will naturally ask himself of all this - his experience of the law - is whether it makes any sense to him. And for a …

Doing Business: The Management Of Uncertainty In Lawyers' Work, John Flood
Doing Business: The Management Of Uncertainty In Lawyers' Work, John Flood
Articles by Maurer Faculty
Apparently naive, but in fact not, is the question: What do lawyers do? Many scholars assume the central role of the lawyer is that of the advocate, but among lawyers working in law firms advocacy consumes little of their time. Similarly, the term lawyer provides hardly any meaning in itself. The research presented here is based on a participant-observation study of a corporate law firm. The central thesis proposed, in the light of case studies of the selling of shopping mall and the arranging of a bank loan, is that business lawyers are engaged in managing uncertainty for both their …
Presenting Expert Testimony, James H. Seckinger
Presenting Expert Testimony, James H. Seckinger
Journal Articles
Mindful that the readers of this Commentary include both experienced advocates as well as lawyers embarking on new careers in the courtroom, this author has divided the Commentary into two parts. The first part considers the seven touchstones for a persuasive direct examination of an expert witness. This discussion should be useful for the experienced and inexperienced advocate alike. The second part of the paper is intended as a primer on practical matters surrounding the selection, preparation, and presentation of an expert as a witness at trial. Experienced advocates may find in these pages confirmation of their practice concerning the …
Lawyers And Liberations, Robert E. Rodes
Lawyers And Liberations, Robert E. Rodes
Journal Articles
The Jesuit educational tradition stresses the importance of service to the community and especially to its underprivileged members. Much of the discussion at the Ignatian Year celebration held at St. Louis University centered on the role of the law school in the Jesuit educational tradition. However, I would like to propose that this discussion take on a much larger focus.
The ideas of community service, solidarity with the poor and professionalism within an ethical context, although integral to the Jesuit tradition, are relevant to society as a whole. Furthermore, integration of these concepts into law school education is merely a …
Inaugural Howard Lichtenstein Lecture In Legal Ethics: Lawyer Professionalism As A Moral Argument, Thomas L. Shaffer
Inaugural Howard Lichtenstein Lecture In Legal Ethics: Lawyer Professionalism As A Moral Argument, Thomas L. Shaffer
Journal Articles
The recurrent movement to call or recall lawyers to professionalism is a moral argument. It is an argument made to individual lawyers, a claim among lawyers, that professionalism has to do with being a good person.
I see two aspects to the claim that professionalism is a moral value: one aspect says to a person "be professional." It is an admonition to virtue. The other aspect says to a person, "be in the profession—be of it," with an appeal that seems familiar from other admonitions we have heard to align ourselves with groups that are supposed to make us better …
