Another "Postscript" To "The Growing Disjunction Between Legal Education And The Legal Profession", Harry T. Edwards Jul 1994

Another "Postscript" To "The Growing Disjunction Between Legal Education And The Legal Profession", Harry T. Edwards

Washington Law Review

"The Gap Between Legal Education and the Needs of the Profession," the subject of this symposium, is a matter about which I have had much to say over the past two years. In the October 1992 edition of the Michigan Law Review, I expressed my deep concern about "the growing disjunction between legal education and the legal profession," in an article with the same title.

Our Worldwide Legal Profession, John Toulmin Jul 1994

Our Worldwide Legal Profession, John Toulmin

Law Quadrangle (formerly Law Quad Notes)

John Toulmin, Queen's Counsel, was a student of Professor William Bishop when he attended the U-M Law School as a foreign Ford Foundation Fellow and Fulbright Scholar in 1964-65. As the president of the Council of the Bars and Law Societies of the European Community (CCBE), he returned to Ann Arbor as the William W. Bishop Jr. Fellow to give the 1993 Bishop Memorial Lecture on the international practice of law. This article is based on his lecture.

In 1965, it did not make sense to talk about a worldwide legal profession. There were many different legal professions which, in …

Education For A Public Calling In The 21st Century, Phoebe A. Haddon Jul 1994

Education For A Public Calling In The 21st Century, Phoebe A. Haddon

Washington Law Review

A decade ago, an issue of the Association of American Law Schools' Journal of Legal Education was devoted to ruminations on selecting lawyers for the twenty-first century. Although some of the papers in the Journal issue offered congratulatory messages to legal educators and the Law School Admissions Council for their work, others more critically assessed legal education and the admissions process, warning of an impending "mid-life crisis" caused in part by an unreflective period of maturation. Focusing on two decades of "applicant explosion," affording the conscious creation of "a more intellectually elite profession,"' a number of the authors who submitted …

Keynote Address—The 21st Century Lawyer: Is There A Gap To Be Narrowed?, Robert Maccrate Jul 1994

Keynote Address—The 21st Century Lawyer: Is There A Gap To Be Narrowed?, Robert Maccrate

Washington Law Review

This law school symposium on the Twenty-First Century Lawyer reflects a fundamental shift in the focus of legal education within the academy—from law in the abstract toward the reality of law in the daily work of lawyers. While holding firm to their scholarly mission, law schools are giving increasing attention to the world of lawyer performance and the needs of their students to be prepared to participate effectively in the legal profession. The 1992 Report entitled Legal Education and Professional Development-An Educational Continuum, by a task force of the American Bar Association Section of Legal Education and Admissions to the …

Risk Management For Lawyers, William H. Fortune, Dulaney O’Roark Jul 1994

Risk Management For Lawyers, William H. Fortune, Dulaney O’Roark

Law Faculty Scholarly Articles

Lawyers are under siege. We have become objects of scorn, ridicule, and occasional hatred. If you take your child to the Stephen Spielberg movie Jurassic Park, be prepared for the cheers when the cloned Tyrannosaurus Rex gobbles the lawyer—not a bad guy at all—cowering in the outhouse. In San Francisco a client burst into a California law firm and killed eight and wounded six persons before taking his own life. In response, the president of the California bar linked lawyer-bashing to hate crimes and prevailed on the Miller Brewing Company to withdraw a television commercial depicting a "lawyer-roping rodeo" …

Somewhere Farther Down The Line: Maccrate On Multiculturalism And The Information Age, Burnele V. Powell

Washington Law Review

A couple of months ago, sometime after I was invited by Symposium Editor Ruth Kennedy to participate in today's discussion, I got a telephone call from her. She wanted to know the title of my remarks. I, of course, had no idea, what I would entitle these remarks because I was still freshly in the throes of trying to write these remarks. Only moments before the phone rang, I had been preoccupied with several CDs that I had recently purchased and was thinking about the task ahead of me. It did occur to me, however, that there was something I …

On Teaching Professional Judgment, Paul Brest, Linda Krieger Jul 1994

On Teaching Professional Judgment, Paul Brest, Linda Krieger

Washington Law Review

To answer the question posed by the conveners of this symposium, of course there is a gap between legal education and the legal profession. There has always been one, and quite possibly it has widened somewhat in recent years, if for no other reason than that the world in which lawyers practice has changed so much while legal education has changed relatively little. The external changes include the internationalization of legal transactions, the centrality of technology to many aspects of practice, increased specialization driven by the proliferation and complexity of statutory and regulatory schemes, and the overloading of traditional systems …

Economic Reality Facing 21st Century Lawyers, Thomas D. Morgan Jul 1994

Economic Reality Facing 21st Century Lawyers, Thomas D. Morgan

Washington Law Review

Our predictions of future developments may be wrong, but if we do not at least think seriously about what skills these students will need to participate in the rapidly changing legal profession, we as legal educators will be certain to disserve both our students and their future clients.

Changing Opportunities For Partnership For Men And Women Lawyers During The Transformation Of The Modern Law Firm, Fiona M. Kay, John Hagan Jul 1994

Changing Opportunities For Partnership For Men And Women Lawyers During The Transformation Of The Modern Law Firm, Fiona M. Kay, John Hagan

Osgoode Hall Law Journal

Considerable controversy surrounds partnership in law firms, particularly regarding the possibility of systematic gender bias and discrimination. This article contributes to the existing literature by considering explanations of women's under-representation in partnerships within the historical context of changes in the structure of law practice. Such changes include transitions in the organization and scale of contemporary law firms, the emergence of branch offices and international markets, the diversification of recruitment practices and mobility routes through modified firm hierarchies, and rising expectations of billable hours. Using a survey of over 1,000 lawyers in Ontario law firms, the authors examine opportunities for partnership …
