"The idea of researching may not be completely foreign. Before attending law school, you may have done research for other classes and thought legal research would be relatively easy. Cases would be handed to you or at least quick to find. But after spending a short time in your research class and being asked to find a specific statute, case, or reporter number, it has become clear that legal research is much more involved than people generally realize, and it has a steep learning curve"-- Provided by publisher.
