Encouraging The Development Of Low Bono Law Practices, Luz E. Herrera

Faculty Scholarship

For decades, the discussion about access to justice has primarily focused on the ability of low–income individuals to obtain free representation by lawyers. Lawyer representation is the “gold star” of the legal profession and advocates of legal services for the poor have fought difficult battles to ensure the most disadvantaged in our country have access to these professionals. As a result, legal aid programs and pro bono services that assist the most economically disadvantaged in our country are now common in our legal service delivery system.

Despite those important efforts, only 50% of those eligible for free legal services actually …

Review Of Failing Law Schools, Richard O. Lempert

Reviews

Brian Tamanaha's book Failing Law Schools is neither sociology nor a synthesis of social science research. Rather it is social commentary rooted in Tamanaha’s experience as a law professor, the literature on legal education, and barely analyzed data on law school costs and student outcomes.

Why U.S. Jurisdictions Should Adopt ‘Regulatory Objectives’ For The Legal Profession The Legal Profession, Laurel Terry

Faculty Scholarly Works

This link goes to the Professor Terry’s Lichtenstein lecture, which was on the topic of her recent article about regulatory objectives for the legal profession. For Professor Terry’s scholarship on this topic, see her long article here, a short article here, and the “regulatory objectives” research area section on her personal webpage. As Professor Terry noted in her lecture, t “regulatory objectives movement” can be traced to the adoption of the 2007 UK Legal Services Act. Section 1 of that Act, which was hotly debated, set forth the regulatory objectives that the Act—and its implementation—should achieve. The UK Act was …
