A Good Lawyer®:

book

A Good Lawyer®: Secrets Good Lawyers [and their best clients] Already Know is an intentionally brief book I have written and copyrighted to be used by lawyers to help fill in the gaps that we don't currently learn in law school, or find in the rules of evidence or in the rules of procedure, but that we need to know to practice law and to do it honorably.

My goal was to create a small book to be for all who practice law what Strunk and White's The Elements of Style is for all who write. I hope it also will be used in law schools to give law students some guideposts for practicing law honorably and some compass points for ethics.

There are more than one million practicing lawyers in the United States today. Over 50,000 men and women enter law school each year and more than 40,000 become new lawyers each year.
