Business Of The Practice Of Law What Every Associate Should Know About Law Firm Life

"The Business of Practicing Law" is a frank discussion of the inner workings and cultural milieu of the modern American law firm. The author's keen insights into the business aspects of the practice of law will fill a void in the typical attorney's legal education. The material is presented in a crisp and readable style, blended with the pertinent personal experiences of two imaginary third-year law students, culminating in their interviews with a model fictional law firm and their ultimate career choices. Every attorney who is considering practice in a law firm--and even those who have already made that choice - will benefit from Mr. Koster's cogent observations, which are based on his 35 years of practice in a variety of legal settings. He manages to convey information in a unique manner that engages the reader, illuminates aspects of the private practice of law that may come as a surprise, and forces an introspective examination of an attorney's goals and compatibility with law firm life. This book is a "must read" for law students and law firm associates.Koster, William is the author of 'Business Of The Practice Of Law What Every Associate Should Know About Law Firm Life', published 2004 under ISBN 9781418436599 and ISBN 1418436593.
