Jagged Rocks of Wisdom—Negotiation

Publisher: The Fine Print Press, Ltd.

This is the third in a planned series of four Jagged Rocks of Wisdom guidebooks for new attorneys.

The first book, Jagged Rocks of Wisdom: Professional Advice for the New Attorney, focused on issues of professional deportment and training.

The second book, Jagged Rocks of Wisdom—The Memo: Mastering the Legal Memorandum, focused on preparing the new law associate in the crucial skills of legal research and writing.

This book breaks the process of a central lawyer skill—negotiation—into 21 Rules. Lund offers a structured framework for negotiation, and explains in concrete steps how to achieve a desired result. Lund explains and applies these Rules with dozens of real-life anecdotes and “Pro Tips” for immediate use.

This book will appeal to business and community leaders as well.  It focuses on one of the most important tasks for any attorney or leader: negotiation. Given its broader market appeal, it is priced below comparable negotiation titles.

Later-in-Life Lawyers (2nd Ed.)

Later-in-Life Lawyers (2nd Ed.)

by Cooper, Charles

Law schools are, by their nature, traditional in attitude and in structure.  Most books about law school take the same approach: they do not address the unique needs of the significant nontraditional segment of their student body.  Other law school books focus on largely irrelevant factors such as rankings and employment in “prestigious” law firms...
