"Whelan has written a book that anyone interested in the law should queue to buy." - The Times (of the 1st edition)
"A classic work" - Michael Beloff KC, Former President, Trinity College Oxford, Treasurer, Gray's Inn
Lawyers are universally unpopular, but is that justified? Aren't lawyers necessary for justice? This book uses real-world examples, case studies, and commentary from practitioners to answer this question and to reveal the many and varied strategies American and English lawyers use to protect clients. It shows how lawyers tackle their conflicting duties, and highlights the choices lawyers everywhere routinely make through their power of decision.
What emerges are new ways of understanding the critical role lawyers play in society - and their professional responsibilities. This new edition considers the litigation surrounding Donald Trump and the role played by his lawyers. It includes a new chapter on SLAPPs and the way the law is used to advance clients' interests.
This book presents a unique and fascinating account of what happens when lawyers' duties to clients conflict with their duties to the legal system, and looks in detail at the ethical codes and laws that regulate their conduct.
