Addressing Access To Justice Through New Legal Service Providers: Opportunities And Challenges, 2016 University of Calgary
Addressing Access To Justice Through New Legal Service Providers: Opportunities And Challenges, Alice Woolley, Trevor C. W. Farrow
Trevor C. W. Farrow
Most informed observers of the Canadian and American legal systems accept the existence of a significant crisis in access to justice. One possible solution is to permit paralegals, notaries or other licensed individuals with training more limited than that enjoyed by a licensed attorney to practice in certain areas of law. This paper supports these developments, arguing for a regulated and incremental introduction of new legal service providers into the legal services market. It considers the appropriate training and scope of practice for new legal service providers, and some of the associated opportunities and challenges.
The Uneasy Case For The Retirement Of Douglas Kahn, 2016 Florida State University
The Uneasy Case For The Retirement Of Douglas Kahn, Jeffrey H. Kahn
Michigan Business & Entrepreneurial Law Review
In the fall semester of 1964, a young Douglas Kahn joined the faculty of the University of Michigan Law School. During the spring semester of 2016, he will teach his final course as a full-time faculty member. For the interim fifty two years, he has been a fixture of the Michigan law school community. As a tax professor, former student, and his son, I am pleased and honored to write this introduction for an edition of the Michigan Business & Entrepreneurial Law Review honoring Professor Kahn’s tenure at the University of Michigan.

What We Talk About When We Talk About Tax Complexity, Andrea Monroe
Michigan Business & Entrepreneurial Law Review
I learned most of what I know about being a lawyer, a teacher, and a scholar from Professor Douglas Kahn. For four months in the spring of 1997, Doug mesmerized and terrified me in the class that I feared would be my academic downfall—Partnership Taxation. In the years that followed, Doug has been a mentor and friend, encouraging and supporting me at every stage of my professional career. And my experience is not unique: Doug has inspired generations of law students in just the same way. There is no adequate way to thank Doug for everything he has given to …
Doug Kahn: Class Master, 2016 University of Michigan Law School
Doug Kahn: Class Master, Dennis E. Ross
Michigan Business & Entrepreneurial Law Review
Doug has always been a bit of a departure from the professorial norm. Teaching for Doug was no accommodation to the job, no activity collateral to his true ambition, but rather an openly genuine attempt to engage his students and pull them into a subject that he obviously loved. His evident joy when in front of a class closed any distance with his students, no small feat considering the subject matter. Tax is forbidding territory for many, and Doug was justifiably known for his refusal to dumb the material down. Thus, much of his class may have been there reluctantly, …
A Note, 2016 University of Michigan Law School
A Note, Robert T. Pelinka Jr.
Michigan Business & Entrepreneurial Law Review
I find it quite meaningful that heartwarming reflections about Douglas Kahn come very naturally to me. Perhaps that, in and of itself, says something about this incredible man. For context, my time in physical proximity to Professor Kahn came during my years as a student-athlete at the University of Michigan, where I graduated from the Ross School of Business, and the Law School. I was also a member of The Michigan Wolverines Basketball Team, where I participated in three NCAA Final Fours, and earned an NCAA Championship Title. I mention these things, not to tout my own accomplishments, but rather …
Where Does One Begin To Describe A Professor Who Literally Changed Your Life?, 2016 University of Michigan Law School
Where Does One Begin To Describe A Professor Who Literally Changed Your Life?, Kelli Turner
Michigan Business & Entrepreneurial Law Review
A bit of background to set the stage, if you’ll indulge me. Growing up in West Bloomfield, Michigan, I was never overly ambitious, nor did I have any lofty academic goals. In particular, I never had any desire to go to law school or, for that matter, to become a lawyer. I come from a family of trial attorneys and it never interested me much. I was a numbers person and didn’t enjoy a lot of deep reading and essay writing (somewhat ironic as I’m writing this for a law journal). But when I started in public accounting and developed …
A Grateful Testimonial To Doug Kahn, 2016 University of Toledo College of Law
A Grateful Testimonial To Doug Kahn, Terrence G. Perris
Michigan Business & Entrepreneurial Law Review
It is difficult for me to accept the reality that Doug Kahn is about to retire after a triumphant fifty-two year tenure as a professor at the University of Michigan Law School. For much of the nearly forty-seven years of my association with the Law School, first as a student and then as an alumnus, Doug has practically symbolized the Law School for me, as he went from being a revered teacher, to a valued mentor, to a dear friend, to a colleague and co-author, and, dare I say, to virtually a member of the family. But I am only …
Doug Kahn - A Personal Appreciation, 2016 University of Miami School of Law
Doug Kahn - A Personal Appreciation, Patricia D. White
Michigan Business & Entrepreneurial Law Review
Doug Kahn has a booming laugh and an infectious enthusiasm for his subject. I am one of the legions of students who were infected by the tax bug—thanks to Doug. It is appropriate that, on the occasion of his retirement, some of us who were most infected reflect on Doug’s influence in our lives. In my case this is easy. I owe the basic contours of my career to Doug. I graduated from Michigan Law in 1974. Times were different then. I graduated never having had a female instructor. There were no women on the faculty. Only thirteen percent of …
Doug Kahn: The Pied Piper Of Tax Law, 2016 University of Michigan Law School
Doug Kahn: The Pied Piper Of Tax Law, Barrie Lawson Loeks, Burt P. Rosen
Michigan Business & Entrepreneurial Law Review
Doug Kahn’s love of tax law appears to be contagious. His wife was a tax lawyer, his son is now a tax law professor, and even his daughter in law is a tax lawyer. Doug may have caught the “tax disease” from his elder brother, who was also a leading tax lawyer. In politics, we have the Kennedys, the Bushes, and the Clintons; in the world of tax law, we have the Kahn family dynasty. One can only assume that the discussions around the family Thanksgiving table sliced and diced tax regulations and policies right along with the turkey and …

On SMU’s part, it had set what might well be a world record by reaching eight international championship finals in just the 2014/15 season alone. During that season, it became the first law school from Singapore in more than 10 years to reach the Vis final, and also became the first ever law school from Singapore to win the Vis East and International Criminal Court (“ICC”) moots. A couple of seasons before that, it also became the first law school from Singapore in almost 10 years to reach the Jessup final, a result it repeated in 2013/14.
