Tort Law Simulations by JAMIE R. ABRAMS Pdf

Legal education pedagogy is transforming rapidly. These simulations bring traditional torts casebooks alive in challenging and empowering ways; bring greater clarity and mastery to tort law concepts; and bridge the study of law into the dynamic practice of law. Using modern simulations representing clients in core "bread and butter" lawyering tasks, students apply their casebook rules to conduct discovery, advise clients, correspond with counsel, draft pleadings, calculate damages, and argue motions. Students move beyond the repetition of appellate cases, incorporating statutes and using secondary sources and practitioner tools to save valuable time and resources. While emphasizing substantive tort law mastery, the simulations further demonstrate how law practice seamlessly connects procedure, substance, and skills.

The Practice of Tort Law by Nelson P. Miller,Paul T. Sorensen,Karen L. Chadwick Pdf

The authors designed this book on current education research. The book includes learner objectives, law summaries, skills and ethics paths, legal-analysis instruction, torts-practice vignettes and materials, case studies, and torts-career advice. Its design is to help you place torts doctrine in its practice context, develop a professional identity, and give you greater control over your learning. In its report Educating Lawyers, the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching urged reforms to integrate skills and ethics into the doctrinal dimension of law, to foster an apprenticeship of practice. This book is an example of the innovation that gives Cooley Law School its preeminence at practice preparation. About the Authors: Nelson Miller is an Associate Dean at Thomas M. Cooley Law School. Before joining Cooley, he practiced civil litigation for over a decade-and-a-half in a small firm, winning and defending multi-million-dollar jury trials in torts cases. His scholarship includes over a dozen books on law practice and legal education. The State Bar of Michigan gave Dean Miller the John W. Cummiskey Award for pro bono service. Paul Sorensen is a Professor at Thomas M. Cooley Law School. Before joining Cooley, he practiced law for 30 years, specializing in civil litigation. He is a past President of the Federal Bar Association West Michigan Chapter and the Grand Rapids Bar Association, which gave him its President's Award for service. He is in the Best Lawyers in America and Michigan Super Lawyers for his leadership and civil-litigation work. Karen Chadwick is a Professor at Thomas M. Cooley Law School. Before joining Cooley, she was Associate General Counsel at Plastech Engineered Products and at the Detroit law firm Butzel Long, P.C. Professor Chadwick also taught for many years at both Wayne State University Law School and University of Detroit-Mercy Law School. Professor Chadwick's practice areas have included products liability, commercial litigation, and worker's compensation. She publishes frequently in leading journals on tort-law subjects.

Fault Lines by David M. Engel,Michael McCann Pdf

Tort law, a fundamental building block of every legal system, features prominently in mass culture and political debates. As this pioneering anthology reveals, tort law is not simply a collection of legal rules and procedures, but a set of cultural responses to the broader problems of risk, injury, assignment of responsibility, compensation, valuation, and obligation. Examining tort law as a cultural phenomenon and a form of cultural practice, this work makes explicit comparisons of tort law across space and time, looking at the United States, Europe, and Asia in the nineteenth, twentieth, and twenty-first centuries. It draws on theories and methods from law, sociology, political science, and anthropology to offer a truly interdisciplinary, pathbreaking view. Ultimately, tort law, the authors show, nests within a larger web of relationships and shared discursive conventions that organize social life.
