The book sets forth three principles for powerful writing and shows how to apply those principles to develop a clean and confident style. Client Science: Advice for Lawyers on Counseling Clients through Bad News and Other Legal Realities 300.102 Oxford Lawyers know that client counseling can be the most challenging part of legal practice. Clients question and often resist the complexities and uncertainties inherent in law and legal process. Honest advice from the lawyer can make

11

a client doubt his or her allegiance and zeal. Client backlash may be directed at the lawyer who communicates bad news. Thus, the lawyer may feel torn between the obligation to clearly inform a client about weaknesses in legal positions and fear of damaging the client relationship. Too often, the lawyer struggles to counsel a particularly difficult client, but to no avail. Client Science is written to provide insight and advice to lawyers on how to more effectively communicate with their clients with regard to legal realities and difficult decisions. It will help lawyers with the always-difficult task of delivering "bad news," which will result in better-informed and thus more satisfied clients. The book explains applicable social science research and insights and translates them into plain language relevant to legal practice and client counseling. Marjorie Corman Aaron offers specific suggestions related to a lawyer's ordering, timing, phrasing, and type of explanation, as well as style adjustments for the lawyer's voice, gesture, and body position, all to impact client counseling and to improve the lawyer-client relationship. Internet Branding for Lawyers: Building the Client-Centered Website 300.103 ABA LPM An effective law firm brand and a compelling website are two of the most critical aspects of law firm marketing, as they can have a tremendous impact on new client development and revenue. How can attorneys create an effective brand and website that will deliver new clients? What works well, and what aspects of the "traditional" website approach used by most firms should be avoided? Internet Branding for Lawyers: Building the Client-Centered Website provides step-by-step direction on how to develop a solid brand and website that will attract the clients your firm desires. You'll learn how to:

• Create a unique brand that identifies and addresses client needs.

• Differentiate from competitors so that your firm will be seen as the right firm by prospective clients for their legal needs.

• Develop a compelling Client-Centered Website with messages that resonate and lead to new clients.

• Create powerful attorney profiles and practice area pages that convey the information that prospective clients are seeking.

The Client-Centered Website approach is fundamentally different from the "traditional" law firm website approach, which focuses on the firm instead of on how clients are served. You'll learn how to avoid the pitfalls of the "traditional" law firm website, as well as how to use successful branding and a Client-Centered Website as the cornerstone of your firm's marketing program. The Art of Practicing Law: Talking to Clients, Colleagues and Others 300.104 ABA Jokes about lawyers describe them as dull and tedious. The jokes suggest that lawyers are dispassionate, that they don't show emotions the way other people do. However, practicing law presents many dramatic situations--the difficulty is that these situations are not often found in the public aspects of legal practice. It is in private meetings with clients and others, in behind-the-scenes events and personal reflections, that the emotional experiences of the legal profession are found. This collection of 70 essays covers a wide range of legal areas and cases large and small, complex and simple, criminal and civil. Music, painting, architecture, and ethics are also discussed, as are specific ways of handling clients whose personalities are, to say the least, idiosyncratic. These stories transcend the specific cases in which they occurred; they combine to teach you effective ways of building meaningful relationships with your clients, staff, and the others around you, and in turn, finding meaning and happiness in your profession. If you wish to broaden your horizons and strengthen your relationships in your life and practice, then this book belongs on your library shelf. Limited Scope Legal Services: Unbundling and the Self-Help Client 300.105 ABA LPM In this rapidly changing economic and legal climate, lawyers are seeking new methods for delivering their services efficiently and effectively while attracting new types of clients. For many firms, limited scope representation--also known as à la carte or unbundled legal services--may be the solution. By providing representation for a clearly defined portion of the client's legal needs, such as preparing a legal document or making limited court appearances, lawyers can market their practice to an entirely new client base and give their firm a competitive advantage. The only book available on the topic, Limited Scope Legal Services provides lawyers of all types--from solo to big law--with
