Best Practices in Attorney Professional Development consists of best practice tenets for law firm and lawyer professional development practices. The contributing authors, professional development attorneys and specialists in law firms, and members of the Professional Development Consortium, identify the best professional development practices, the related mistakes firms and/or lawyers make, provide examples illustrating the errors, and include suggestions to "cure" or prevent related blunders. Job descriptions of professional development positions are also included in the hard copy offering; sections on best practices for lawyers and employers also are each available individually and in bulk in downloadable formats.For bulk pricing, please contact Jill Eckert McCall at eckertj@staff.abanet.org or 312.988.6215.
