Summary

"You learn a lot in law school. But there is more to being a lawyer than knowing the law inside out. Filling in the Blanks: Practical Skills for the Working Lawyer is a chapter-by-chapter roadmap, prepared by those who have succeeded in private practice, designed to take young and working lawyers through the complexities of "how to practice law". The book is packed with in-depth lessons, learned in the crucible of daily practice, including how to: become a positive contributor to your form; develop good judgment; build better negotiation and communication skills; read and understand financial statements; handle the litigation process; and keep a balance in your personal life. Career development is an ongoing process and this book is designed to be read and re-read to build and maintain fundamental skills. Whether you are a new law student, a first year associate, a seasoned trial lawyer, or a practice group leader, Filling in the Blanks provides the practical skills needed to understand and effectively manage the business of law."--Back cover
