Publisher's Synopsis
This book has been revised substantially for 2021 and beyond. Each chapter in the book has been updated and this second edition includes a new chapter on employment issues. The book continues to be dedicated to the work of a full array of transactional clinics and serves as the basic introductory reading material for the seminar component of a law school transactional clinical course. The book includes chapters addressing:
- Skill issues as they relate specifically to transactional practice, including interviewing, counseling, negotiation and drafting;
- Ethical and professional role issues arising in that type of work;
- Issues specific to remote and virtual interactions with clients and others;
- Community group representation and economic development; and
- Substantive law topics that students typically encounter in transactional clinics.
The book also has relevance to simulation-based courses focusing on transactional practice.
