Look Before You Leap: A Guide for Aspiring Lawyers Hargreaves, Chris (The Whittington Hospital Nhs Trust) 1.º edición

Are you planning on studying law, or in the process of it? How certain are you that law school is going to prepare you adequately for your legal career? Chances are it won't. How much do you know about what you're getting yourself in for? Learn from the experience of others in this book, and find out what legal practice is really like before you get too far down the track! The reality is that Law School will arm you with technical legal skills, but even the most dedicated Universities are not providing Law Students with the information they need to make good career decisions from the start. Similarly, the amount of information available to Senior School Students thinking about studying a Law Degree is pretty pathetic. If you're lucky, you might know a lawyer who is prepared to disgorge everything they know - but many people aren't so lucky or don't care to ask in case they look silly. This book is specifically designed to provide real world information about legal practice. It includes discussions about money, promotion, character traits of good lawyers, and the pros and cons of legal practice. If you're considering studying law at law school and embarking on a legal career - then this book is for you!
