The last ten years have been a period of extraordinary change for law firms. The rapid growth of corporate law firms and the emergence of global mega-firms have strained the traditional partnership model of management. Some managers of law firms are appalled at the creeping 'corporatism' that they fear may result. However a growing number believe that it is time to move on and adopt more contemporary forms of structure and management. In Managing the Modern Law Firm scholars and legal practitioners examine the latest insights from management research, to enable law firms successfully to meet the challenges of this new business environment.

Not all law firms will survive the tumult headed their way.Over the past three decades, the legal industry has been turned upside down. Increasingly rapid advances in technology have radically changed everything about the way law firms operate-from attracting and retaining clients, to researching relevant case law, collaborating with colleagues, and filing documents. With competition coming not just from other traditional law firms but also from online legal services, it's more important than ever to differentiate your firm in a crowded marketplace. Yet the majority of firms continue down the path of "business as usual" despite the whirlwind of change roaring outside their windows.Will your firm be blindsided by the threats at hand and pay the price in lost business, lost talent, and lost revenue? Or will you face these threats head-on and learn how to turn them to your advantage so you can not just survive, but thrive?If you'd prefer the latter, this book is your comprehensive, actionable roadmap for navigating this new landscape. Let's dive in!

Honorable Mention, 2017 Scribes Book Award, The American Society of Legal Writers At the dawn of the twentieth century, the United States was reeling from the effects of rapid urbanization and industrialization. Time-honored verities proved obsolete, and intellectuals in all fields sought ways to make sense of an increasingly unfamiliar reality. The legal system in particular began to buckle under the weight of its anachronism. In the midst of this crisis, John Henry Wigmore, dean of the Northwestern University School of Law, single-handedly modernized the jury trial with his 1904-5 Treatise onevidence, an encyclopedic work that dominated the conduct of trials. In so doing, he inspired generations of progressive jurists—among them Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr., Benjamin Cardozo, and Felix Frankfurter—to reshape American law to meet the demands of a new era. Yet Wigmore’s role as a prophet of modernity has slipped into obscurity. This book provides a radical reappraisal of his place in the birth of modern legal thought.

This contracts casebook includes introductions that quickly orient students within unfamiliar territories. Cases present both the doctrine applied and, in some instances, the shortcomings of that doctrine. the authors express their disagreement about basic issues, so that students can experience the range of possible in modern contract law. to save time, the authors avoid extensive citation of academic scholarship except as it pertains to the cases being studied. Certain traditional subjects such as offer and acceptance and consideration are reduced to the bare minimum, where more pivotal subjects such as form contracts, arbitration clauses, and the modern concept of unconscionability are considered at length.
