Description

Concise Guide to Paralegal Ethics 6th Edition Therese A. Cannon ISBN 9798892078610

This streamlined edition of Cannon and Taylor Aytch’s widely respected textbook offers a focused and practical introduction to legal ethics from the perspective of the practicing paralegal. Written specifically for paralegal students, working paralegals, and the attorneys who rely on their support, the text delivers concise yet thorough coverage of the ethical principles that govern modern legal practice. Clear explanations and effective pedagogy ensure comprehensive treatment of all major areas of legal ethics, with particular attention to how ethical rules directly affect paralegals.

Each chapter opens with an overview and presents the material in a logical, well-organized format. Key terms are highlighted in italics to aid comprehension. Review and discussion questions reinforce learning, while end-of-chapter research projects encourage deeper engagement and practical application. Hypothetical scenarios throughout the text demonstrate how ethical principles and rules operate in real-world situations. Helpful appendices include the full text of relevant ethical codes. The book is ideal for use in a short ethics course or as a supplemental resource in substantive law courses.
