Description
Legal Specialization: A Handbook Robert H Edmunds Jr ISBN 9781639056514
This book examines the growing field of legal specialization, highlighting its benefits for both the public and the individual attorney. As the practice of law evolves and the number of licensed lawyers increases, more attorneys are choosing to focus on specific areas of practice. In response, many states have established formal programs that allow experienced and skilled attorneys to undergo testing and peer review to be recognized as board-certified specialists in their fields.
The volume addresses two key aspects of specialization. For attorneys considering certification, contributors provide a clear overview of the process, along with the professional and marketing advantages that accompany board recognition. For those in states without existing certification programs, the book offers detailed guidance on how to establish such a program in coordination with the state bar.
Acknowledging that legal specialization can be a controversial topic in some circles, the contributors also address concerns raised by skeptics. Yet, as the practice of law becomes increasingly complex, specialization offers a path for attorneys to demonstrate expertise and stand out in their field. While it may not become universal, legal specialization will continue to appeal to those who excel in particular practice areas—and this book serves as a roadmap for navigating that path.
