What's to Become of the Legal Profession? Michael H Trotter

"What's to Become of the Legal Profession?" is about the future of the practice of law in the United States. Over the last twenty years many legal consultants and academics have predicted significant disruptive changes in the way our legal system operates and in the prospects of lawyers. Trotter explains why many of these changes have not occurred and provides his own view of what the future holds for the legal profession. In the process he reviews the significant changes that has taken place in the practice of law since the end of World War II, describes their effect on the practice of law today, and explains why the challenges now facing the legal profession are no more intimidating than the issues it has successfully addressed over the last 70+ years.
