Abstract
This post riffs on BARBRI’s “State of the Legal Field Survey” reporting that “71 percent of 3L law students believe they possess sufficient practice skills. In contrast, only 23 percent of practicing attorneys who work at companies that hire recent law school graduates believe recent law school graduates possess sufficient practice skills.” Making it personal, I asked readers if they would be confident that a recent law graduate would do a good job in handling a garden-variety legal case of theirs. I wouldn’t.
