ExpressO

This article analyses the role of U.S. law schools in educating foreign lawyers and the increasingly competitive global market for graduate legal education.

Winners And Losers In The Globalization Of Legal Services: Offshoring The Market For Foreign Lawyers, Carole Silver

Articles by Maurer Faculty

The usefulness of foreign languages to the United States lawyer gradually has been gaining increased recognition in the profession, …
