The Young Lawyer's Jungle Book: A Survival Guide

Customer Reviews:

Best If Read Before Law School...

By L. J. Edson - November 15, 2000

Best if read before law school, or the LSAT's for that matter.Nothing new here. The law is, for the most part, a thankless job. What other well paying job isn't?The first year of practice can be a make or break year for the unprepared. Most of the book is common sense, but should be read because your head will be somewhere else, and you need all the help you can get.It's a good book to read at the gym on the stationary bike, and short enough to be finished in a few work-outs.Some of the reviews are crazy. This book will NOT put you on the fast track to making partner.

An excellent book, loaded with good information.

I have found this to be an excellent book on the practice of law. After nearly two years in a medium-sized, boutique law firm, I think the situations and advice of the author are on-point. The book is a bit unconventional, but after a few chapters, I found it well-written and really funny, which makes it a lot easier to digest. I recommend this book to all new lawyers. It has information you won't find anywhere else - including stuff nobody ever mentioned to me - and you might pay a hundred bucks to duplicate it, if you could find a "Senior" lawyer who cared enough to tell you everything written in the book. Five stars - a definite "buy."

The Young Lawyer's Jungle Book is a brilliant book.

I was having problems with work. I never seemed to know what to do, or how to do something right, and I always seemed to say the wrong thing at the wrong time. Plus, it seemed that I never really knew what I was supposed to be doing. A partner came by my office last Friday and gave me a copy of this book, and asked me to read it. I was very embarrassed, and hid it in my carryall. I was very, very unhappy at work, but I started to read it. I spent all weekend reading it, and ended up reading it three times! This is an amazing book. I now see what I've been doing wrong, and I will change everything I do at the office. Thank you, thank you, thank you, Mr. Messinger. I certainly wish you had been one of my professors. I really wish I had known about this book months ago. I recommend it to everyone.
