Comparing United States And New Zealand Legal Education: Are U.S. Law Schools Too Good?, Gregory S. Crespi Jan 1997

Comparing United States And New Zealand Legal Education: Are U.S. Law Schools Too Good?, Gregory S. Crespi

Faculty Journal Articles and Book Chapters

This Article offers a comparison of the legal education systems of the United States and New Zealand. While it was originally published in 1997 in the Vanderbilt Journal of Transnational Law, and has been largely overlooked in more recent years, it is germane to the current vigorous debate regarding what changes need to be made in American legal education. I highlight in this Article several significant differences between these two systems by contrasting their admissions policies, clinical programs, availability of "law-and-economics" electives, and staffing of required courses. Based on this analysis, I concluded that although American law schools were clearly …

Efficient, Effective Advocacy In The "Computer Age" Demands The Marriage Of The Work Product Doctrine To Computerized Litigation Databases, Cecilee Price-Huish

Computer Law Review and Technology Journal

The attorney-client relationship is one that often evolves over years of legal representation, which often results in the creation of close working relationships and the development of mutual trust. It is not unusual for an attorney or law firm to represent a client for a number of years, fulfilling many different functions as circumstances require. Within this context, a lawyer's roles may include counselor, mediator and litigator. In the age of the information superhighway, where business is increasingly conducted via computerized systems, it is commonplace for an attorney, during the course of lengthy legal representation, to rely heavily on computerized …

Constructing A New Theoretical Framework For Home Improvement Financing, Julia Patterson Forrester Rogers Jan 1996

Constructing A New Theoretical Framework For Home Improvement Financing, Julia Patterson Forrester Rogers

Faculty Journal Articles and Book Chapters

In this Article, I advocate modification of the law governing home improvement financing. In section I, I discuss the prevalence of home improvement scams, the dual system of home improvement financing available to affluent and poor homeowners, and the social cost of home improvement scams. Despite attempts by lawmakers to protect homeowners from unscrupulous home improvement contractors and lenders, home improvement scams remain a significant consumer problem. Most victims of such scams are poor, minority, and elderly homeowners. These homeowners obtain home improvements and home improvement financing through a system with tremendous potential for abuse. In this system, contractors and …
