Produktbeschreibung

Everything you've been told about being a lawyer is wrong. Many young lawyers believe they have only two career paths: a high-paying BigLaw job or a public interest job with meaningful work and limited pay. Bill Reid chose a third path, which is hardly mentioned let alone encouraged in law school-combining purpose and prosperity. That path is a career as a plaintiffs' lawyer. In Fighting Bullies, he provides a road map for considering a rewarding career in plaintiffs' law. The book is a straight-talk, no-BS guide to building a meaningful, high-impact legal career. Part personal story, part call to action, it presents a compelling case for why plaintiffs' law is the best career choice for lawyers interested in work that matters. Essential reading for any aspiring lawyer, regardless of your interest in plaintiffs' law, Fighting Bullies offers a sharp, honest explanation of law firm economics set along with a thoughtful framework for thinking critically about your future in law.
