When The State Demands Disclosure, Rebecca Aviel 2011 University of Denver Sturm College of Law

When The State Demands Disclosure, Rebecca Aviel

Cardozo Law Review

The obligation to provide certain types of information to government authorities - reporting child abuse, say, or insurance fraud - is proliferating. Are these laws enforceable against lawyers who obtain the sought-after information in the course of representing a client? This Article sets out to answer exactly that question. It begins by explaining why it is wrong to approach the question by balancing the policies that underlie attorney-client confidentiality against those underlying reporting statutes. Such an approach fails to grasp the essential nature of the question, which is one of legislative power and legislative intent. This Article is the first …

Cardozo Law Review

The article addresses the immigrant representation crisis in U.S. immigration courts, highlighting a severe shortage of competent legal representation for individuals in removal proceedings. This crisis is marked by both a lack of quantity and quality of representation, exacerbated by rising deportation rates, detention practices, and resource constraints faced by removal defense providers (RDPs). The study underscores the critical role of legal representation in achieving successful outcomes, with stark disparities in success rates between represented and unrepresented individuals. It advocates for systemic solutions, including expanded funding, improved coordination among providers, and policy reforms to ensure fair and competent representation for …


To License Or Not To License? A Look At Differing Approaches To Policing The Activities Of Nonlawyer Immigration Service Providers, Careen Shannon 2011 Fragomen, Del Rey, Bernsen & Loewy, LLP

To License Or Not To License? A Look At Differing Approaches To Policing The Activities Of Nonlawyer Immigration Service Providers, Careen Shannon

Cardozo Law Review

State (and some local) governments have struggled to find ways to protect immigrants from exploitation by persons falsely holding themselves out as immigration lawyers or claiming expertise as notarios or immigration consultants. Existing legislation ranges from attempts to regulate the activities of nonlawyer immigration service providers (ISPs) by delineating prohibited practices; to requiring ISPs to post a bond or register with the state; to specifically restricting the provision of immigration assistance for compensation by any nonlawyer who is not accredited by the Board of Immigration Appeals to transcription, translation, document procurement and related clerical tasks. A comparative look at the …


Response To The David Segal Article, November 19, 2011, In New York Times, Martin J. Katz 2011 University of Denver

Response To The David Segal Article, November 19, 2011, In New York Times, Martin J. Katz

Sturm College of Law: Faculty Scholarship

As David Segal’s November 19 article accurately reflects, the legal market is changing. Clients are no longer willing to foot the bill for young lawyers’ training, and thus law firms are increasingly looking to the law schools to produce practice-ready graduates.

The good news is that there are clear solutions to the problem, and they are already in motion. A report published in 2007 by the Carnegie Foundation entitled "Education Lawyers" identified precisely the problem described in Mr. Segal’s article and suggested that law schools should address it by developing courses that educate law students on three levels: knowledge, practice …

Why This Time Is Different: The Perfect Storm And The Future Of Legal Education, Martin J. Katz 2011 University of Denver

Why This Time Is Different: The Perfect Storm And The Future Of Legal Education, Martin J. Katz

Sturm College of Law: Faculty Scholarship

When we discuss legal education reform, some of the more jaded members of our community often ask, “Why is this time any different?” They rattle off a list of dust-covered reports about proposed reforms for legal education, often dating back several decades, and wonder how we can be optimistic about the prospects for meaningful reform now.

The answer is that we are in the midst of a perfect storm; one in which several powerful forces are driving law schools toward reform.

A Right To Legal Aid: The Aba Model Access Act In International Perspective, James Maxeiner 2011 University of Baltimore School of Law

A Right To Legal Aid: The Aba Model Access Act In International Perspective, James Maxeiner

All Faculty Scholarship

For over two centuries America has failed to fulfill its revolutionary ideals of bringing equal justice to all. In August 2010 the American Bar Association moved to bring the nation closer to its ideals when it proposed the ABA Model Access Act. The Act would do what the Supreme Court of the United States has refused to do: it would recognize that legal aid in civil litigation is a matter of right and not of charity. The Act is a framework law and leaves many details to be filled in by enacting bodies and by the institutions eventually charged with …

Hiring Teams, Firms, And Lawyers: Evidence Of The Evolving Relationship In The Corporate Legal Market, Michele M. DeStefano, John C. Coates, Ashish Nanda, David B. Wilkins 2011 University of Miami School of Law

Hiring Teams, Firms, And Lawyers: Evidence Of The Evolving Relationship In The Corporate Legal Market, Michele M. Destefano, John C. Coates, Ashish Nanda, David B. Wilkins

Articles

How are relationships between corporate clients and law firms evolving? Drawing on interview and survey data from 166 chief legal officers of S&P 500 companies from 2006-2007, we find that-contrary to standard depictions of corporate client-provider relationships-(1) large companies have relationships with ten to twenty preferred providers; (2) these relationships continue to be enduring, and (3) clients focus not only on law firm platforms and lead partners, but also on teams and departments within preferred providers, allocating work to these subunits at rival firms over time and following "star" lawyers, especially if they move as part of a team. The …


The Law School Firm, Bradley T. Borden, Robert J. Rhee 2011 University of Florida Levin College of Law

The Law School Firm, Bradley T. Borden, Robert J. Rhee

UF Law Faculty Publications

This Article introduces the concept of the law school firm. The concept calls for law schools to establish affiliated law firms. The affiliation would provide opportunities for students, faculty, and attorneys to collaborate and share resources to teach, research, write, serve clients, and influence the development of law and policy. Based loosely on the medical school model, the law school firm will help bridge the gap between law schools and the practice of law.
