5.0 out of 5 stars
Excellent advice for the newly minted lawyer.,
By John P. (Kennett Square, PA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Making Partner: A Guide for Law Firm Associates (Paperback)
I bought this short but dense book when I was in my third year of law school (3.5 years ago), and I have found its advice to be extremely useful. It is aimed at the "typical" associate in the "typical" law firm, meaning one that draws most of its business from the surrounding community. Nevertheless, much of what the book has to offer will be valuable for any new lawyer in any type of practice (including non-profit and government work). The author not only gives homely advice (e.g., read the Wall Street Journal every day) but also helps you see the big picture -- long-term relationships with clients, continual self-education, giving back to the community, etc. He also provides an excellent list of questions you should ask prospective employers (for those who are lucky enough to read this book before they have a job), plus helpful (and ambitious) to-do lists for each year that you are in practice as an associate. This book will help you succeed in your law firm (if that is your workplace), and, more important, it will make you a better lawyer.
