In contrast to the many negativistic books on being a lawyer today, “Success Briefs For Lawyers” presents a set of biographical accounts that not only prove that a good life is possible in the law, but also teach you how to achieve it. The book is based on a simple idea: If you want to achieve personal an professional satisfaction in the practice of law, find lawyers who have done it and learn from them. The editors have brought together a group distinguished lawyers to tell their stories in ways that make you laugh, tug your heartstrings, get you to reexamine your goals and values, and inspire you to succeed at law and life.
