LegalTrac Abstract:  "Attorneys and law firms must realize that the law is a business and use business marketing strategies.  These strategies might include projecting the firm as one which will remain mindful of the client's bottom line, using direct-mail advertising, staging promotions, and outsourcing mundane work to areas of the country where labor costs are less."

New York Public Library Database Summary:  "If the practice of law is viewed as a business, then lawyers and law firms must adopt the marketing strategies of other businesses.  Suggestions are offered, including projecting a trim and wasteless image to clients concerned with their own bottom line and capitalizing on surges in patriotism."

")

LegalTrac Abstract:  "The author humorously explores the marginally useful and often obscure terms used in 'A Uniform System of Citation,' known commonly as the Bluebook.  He suggests trimming it down and removing much of the Latin, especially op cit, passim, and cf, and takes issue with the use of see, accord, contra, id, and hereinafter."

New York Public Library Database Summary:  "Lawyers think of the term 'citation' as following what are often arcane, confusing and nitpicking rules when referring to authorities in briefs and memoranda, and these rules are collected in 'A Universal System of Citation,' or 'the Bluebook.'  This book could be dramatically shortened, and the rules it contains could be simplified and made easier to interpret."

Subjects:  Legal annotations and citations - standards - humor -writing - rules - books - attorneys
