My Father and Atticus Finch
Author: Joseph Madison Beck
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780820353081
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
My Father and Atticus Finch is the true story of Foster Beck, the author's late father, whose courageous defense of a black man accused of raping a white woman in 1930s Alabama foreshadowed the trial at the heart of Harper Lee's classic novel To Kill a Mockingbird. After repeatedly being told that his father's case "might have" inspired Ms. Lee, author Beck, now a lawyer himself, located the trial transcript and multiple newspaper articles and here reconstructs his father's role in State of Alabama v. Charles White, Alias. On the day of the arrest, the local newspaper reported, under a page-one headline, that "a wandering negro fortune teller giving the name Charles White" had "volunteered a detailed confession of the attack" of a local white girl. However, Foster Beck concluded that the confession was coerced. The same article claimed that "the negro accomplished his dastardly purpose," but as in To Kill a Mockingbird, there was stunning and dramatic testimony at the trial to the contrary. The saga captivated the community with its dramatic testimonies and emotional outcome. This riveting memoir, steeped in time and place, seeks to understand how race relations, class, and the memory of southern defeat in the Civil War produced such a haunting distortion of justice and how it may figure into our literary imagination.

The Business of Being a Lawyer
Author: Pamela Bucy Pierson
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781628100167
Category : Electronic books
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Based on the successful law school course, The Business of Being a Lawyer, this book is designed for use as a course book, as a supplement in ongoing related courses such as legal professions or law office practice, and as a resource for law school auxiliary programs such as Career Services, Student Support, and Financial Aid and Counseling. This book addresses three topics essential in today's legal education: (1) economic trends in the legal profession, (2) emotional intelligence issues relevant to the practice of law such as managing stress, maintaining balance, building resilience, and using one's strengths, (3) personal financial planning basics. This book recognizes that lawyers of the future will be "free agents" throughout their careers, changing jobs multiple times, and constantly having to demonstrate the value they add. To be an effective free agent will require all three tools: an understanding of the economic topography of the legal profession, good EQ skills, and financial management savvy. Incorporating legal scholarship on the economics of the legal profession, science from field of psychology, and financial planning made fun and engaging by following two hypothetical law students throughout their forty-year careers, this book includes case studies and specific advice. It is engaging, informative, practical and cutting edge. It is the first to bring these complex and interrelated topics together in one resource and relate them to the world facing today's law students.
