About this title

Review:

Kanter allows "lawyers to see ourselves through the eyes of one of our ownwho possesses veneer-penetrating vision, tempered with wit and humor." --Legal Times

Synopsis:

With humour in the tradition of Robert Benchley and S J Perelman, Kanter shares with us the absurdities of life in a law firm. Via memos, speeches, and committee meetings, Arnold B Kanter introduces the mythically inept firm of Fairweather, Winters & Sommers in "The Handbook of Law Firm Mismanagement". In "Advanced Law Firm Mismanagement", the firm's founder, Stanley Fairweather, tells us about the (good and not-so-good) old days and looks ahead with a bit of trepidation at where the profession is going. In "The Ins & Outs of Law Firm Mismanagement", we see lawyers through the eyes of the firm's non-lawyers - secretaries, paralegals, the computer geek - who know better than anyone else how ridiculous lawyers can be. And in "Was That a Tax Lawyer Who Just Flew Over?", Kanter lets us see lawyers from the point of view of their clients and other outsiders.
