About this title

Synopsis

A new job is scary for anyone. A new job as an attorney is scary times two: the challenges are both substantive (as in actually knowing the law), as well as procedural (as in knowing how to act like an attorney). In this professional transition, many new attorneys fall by the wayside. This book is a guide to keep the new attorney on track. It includes advice for the new law firm associate, written by a Yale Law School graduate who made partner in a national law firm. Written in a first- and second-person tense and filled with no-nonsense guidance from someone actually in the mentorship role in a real-world law firm.

This is the first book in a Jagged Rocks of Wisdom series to help the new attorney. The second book, Jagged Rocks of Wisdom-The Memo: Mastering the Legal Memorandum, focuses on the many challenges of one of the major task for a new attorney - the law memo - for the highly demanding world of partners and clients. A third book, Jagged Rocks of Wisdom -Negotiation, is expected in 2011.
