Descripciones mejoradas de Syndetics:

This book is a collection of true stories about lawyers who broke the rules ended up being sued for malpractice, disbarred, or prosecuted. Intended as supplemental reading for students in professional responsibility, ethics, or lawyering classes, it contains stories that come directly from the courtroom, revealing the gritty realities of lawyers in trouble. Each narrative was selected by several criteria: whether it raised significant issues of legal ethics; whether it would lend itself to good classroom discussion; and whether there was an interesting tale to be drawn from the trial record.

The stories make fascinating and memorable reading and are an effective tool for conveying the principles of legal ethics and responsibility. This unique book - no other book on professional responsibility takes Kelley's storytelling approach - will be an important addition to the field. A teacher's manual is available.

"This book is a perfect supplement to the study of professional responsibility and should not be limited to use by students. Practitioners would be wise to read these stories and remind themselves of what could happen if they are not careful."
- Legal Information ALERT, June 2001 "I believe this book would appeal to a wide audience: students, with and without a law background, practicing attorneys and anyone with an interest in ethical-legal issues. Kelley does an excellent job . . . Each story is a thought provoking narrative, guaranteed to entertain and educate."
