Paperback. Zustand: Good. It appears E. B. Fletcher has done it again and created a nascent collection to rival Dr. Seuss. Not only is her work-Lincoln McCarthy, Attorney at Law-fun and whimsical, it is indeed educational with a strong moral lesson. I'm sure this series will delight parents and their children. As a professional educator, E. B. Fletcher helps readers grow and learn, as she provides a listing of new terms for early readers to stretch their imaginations and help expand their vocabularies (Charlie Finley, senior editor, Verbatim Editing, Richmond, Vancouver). This book teaches a lesson of integrity depicted in a way that every child will adore. It addresses situations with humor and suspense using animals that children love and can relate to. This book not only has a moral but it could also be used to teach prepositions. This is a great book for all to enjoy (Tina Becouvarakis, third-grade teacher, Hampton, Vancouver). Lincoln McCarthy, Attorney at Law is an amazing story for teaching personification through a great storyline and fun characters (Alicia Reeves, fourth-grade teacher and UVA graduate student). Agree with canine jurisprudence and your take on lawyers. Thought-provoking for big and little kids (Steve Moore, UVA law graduate and Hampton lawyer retired]). Legally funny (RonThomason, UVA law graduate and Norton lawyer retired]). Taylor, Debbie (illustrator).…

Hardback. Zustand: Good. The comprehensive source on attorney licensing and how to reform it. In Shaping the Bar, Joan Howarth describes how the twin gatekeepers of the legal profession?law schools and licensers?are failing the public. Attorney licensing should be laser-focused on readiness to practice law with the minimum competence of a new attorney. According to Howarth, requirements today are both too difficult and too easy. Amid the crisis in unmet legal services, record numbers of law school graduates?disproportionately people of color?are failing bar exams that are not meaningful tests of competence to practice. At the same time, after seven years of higher education, hundreds of thousands of dollars of law school debt, two months of cramming legal rules, and success on a bar exam, a candidate can be licensed to practice law without ever having been in a law office or even seen a lawyer with a client. Howarth makes the case that the licensing rituals familiar to generations of lawyers?unfocused law degrees and obsolete bar exams?are protecting members of the profession more than the public. Beyond explaining the failures of the current system, this book presents the latest research on competent lawyering and examples of better approaches. This book presents the path forward by means of licensing changes to protect the public while building an inclusive, diverse, competent, ethical profession. Thoughtful and engaging, Shaping the Bar is both an authoritative account of attorney licensing and a pragmatic handbook for overdue equitable reform of a powerful profession.…

Hardback. Zustand: Very Good. For an ambitious and public-spirited young lawyer, being a prosecutor for the federal court in the Southern District, which includes Manhattan and some of its wealthiest suburbs, is the gold ring. And ascending to the leadership role of US Attorney for the Southern District is a capstone to any career: you have responsibility for guiding a team of the best lawyers in America in deciding what cases to prosecute and then successfully executing on them, cases that often have global stakes and global visibility. Geoffrey Berman began his career as a young lawyer in the Southern District s offices; he was honoured to be tapped by Donald Trump in 2018 to return as his leader. So began one of the most tumultuous two-and-a-half-year stretches in the two-hundred-year history of the court. Almost immediately Berman found himself pushing back on Trump's Justice Department in DC on their blatant efforts to bring weak cases against political foes and squash worthy cases that threatened to tarnish allies and Trump himself. When Bill Barr became Attorney General, Berman hoped things would get better, but to his shock they got much worse. The heart of Holding the Line is his never before told account of the lengths Barr went to in corrupting the independence of the office, and the lengths Berman had to go to push back. Finally, after two and a half years, Trump and Barr, fed up with Berman's priorities, summarily fired him. Berman's courageous and principled defence of the values of judicial independence, without fear or favour, made him a hero to his colleagues, and to everyone who shares those values. Holding the Line also tells stories of the remarkable casework of the Southern District in his time there, including taking down notorious sex traffickers Jeffrey Epstein and Peter Nygard, Big Pharma CEOs, vicious criminal syndicates, and malign titans of international finance, and repatriating Nazi-looted art.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. For readers of Dopesick and In the Realm of Hungry Ghosts, a celebrated cannabis attorney's personal look at the War on Drugs and what comes next for the drug legalization movement Getting high is something most of us do, and in many cases do safely--yet drugs remain a singular public enemy. In a ranging blend of memoir, pop culture, policy critique, and social analysis, LA-based criminal defense attorney Allison Margolin explores why--and what we can do about it. Informed by Margolin's experiences as a drug user, advocate, and the daughter of California's most renowned (and infamous) cannabis attorney, Just Dope offers a look at where our current drug policy fails. It exposes the true history of drug prohibition in the United States, sharing why it started, how it evolved, and where it stands now. And it looks unflinchingly at the false dichotomy between "good" drugs and "bad" drugs and Margolin's experience with programs like D.A.R.E that misguidedly ask you to "Just Say No." For readers of All Day is a Long Time and In the Realm of Hungry Ghosts, Just Dope is an experiential tour-de-force of personal essay and whip-smart policy critique-and a vital call to knowledge and action.…

Hardback. Zustand: Very Good. Riveting . . . a suspenseful tale, right up to the satisfying climax, wrote Publishers Weekly in praise of The Judge. Legal thrillers don't get much better than this. Kirkus Reviews hailed Undue Influence as the courtroom novel of the year. Now Martini delivers Paul Madriani's most challenging case yet: one pitting a drug-addicted mother against her daughter's newly rich grandfather in a contentious custody case that leads to criminal accusations and ultimately murder. Having moved to San Diego to be closer to the woman in his life, Madriani takes on the case of Jonah Hale, an elderly man in terrible straits. As a result of their only child Jessica's longtime drug addiction, Jonah and his wife have been raising their eight-year-old granddaughter, Amanda. On the heels of Jonah's multimillion-dollar state lottery win, Jessica revives her interest in mothering. When Jonah won't deal--maternal rights for a mega-bucks payoff--Jessica plays dirty: she accuses the old man of having sexually abused her as a child and similarly abusing Amanda now. Enter Zo Suade--a flamboyant, feminist activist with a penchant for making the objects of custody battles and their mother/plaintiffs disappear. True to form, a week after Zo takes on Jessica's case, mother and daughter vanish. When Zo's body turns up, Jonah becomes the prime suspect. And Madriani is the man who can prove his innocence. Filled with action in and out of court, rich in characters with motives obvious and subtle, The Attorney marks the much-anticipated return of Paul Madriani.…
