Lawyering At The Edge: Foreword, Roy D. Simon
Hofstra Law Review
Lawyering can be humdrum and routine, or it can be exciting and dangerous (or anywhere in between). Hofstra's sixth major conference on legal ethics' focused on the exciting and dangerous parts.

The extraordinary roster of nineteen speakers featured both practicing lawyers and outstanding scholars. The practicing lawyers described their own personal experiences lawyering at the edge, while the scholars examined the inspiring stories of lawyers who have exhibited remarkable courage.

The Employment Discrimination Provisions Of The Americans With Disabilities Act: Implementation And Impact, Scott Burris, Kathryn Moss
The Employment Discrimination Provisions Of The Americans With Disabilities Act: Implementation And Impact, Scott Burris, Kathryn Moss
Hofstra Labor & Employment Law Journal
Title I of the Americans with Disabilities Act prohibits employment discrimination on the basis of disability. Since its passage in 1990, debate has raged about whether the statute is doing any good. A steady stream of narrowing court decisions has led some to declare the law a failure. This article reviews the empirical evidence on the effectiveness of Title I. Many studies find a decline in employment rates among the disabled in the wake of the ADA, but the evidence that these declines were caused by the ADA is weak. Title I protects people who require no more than a …

Unethical Obedience By Subordinate Attorneys: Lessons From Social Psychology, Andrew M. Perlman
Unethical Obedience By Subordinate Attorneys: Lessons From Social Psychology, Andrew M. Perlman
Hofstra Law Review
This Article explores the lessons that we can learn from social psychology regarding a lawyer's willingness to comply with authority figures, such as senior partners or deep-pocketed clients, when they make unlawful or unethical demands. The Article reviews some of the basic literature in social psychology regarding conformity and obedience, much of which emphasizes the importance of context as a primary factor in predicting people's behavior. The Article then contends that lawyers frequently find themselves in the kinds of contexts that produce high levels of conformity and obedience and low levels of resistance to illegal or unethical instructions. The result …
