    "Our focus is on trauma as it impacts and applies to lawyers and clients in practice, legal education, courts and judges, and the legal system and profession as a whole. This book gives voice to only some of the many traumatic experiences that arise in all aspects of law. Unless we hear these voices, we cannot begin to address the many legal, ethical, moral, educational, juridical systems or other issues they raise even where we have tools to do so. The pursuit of justice means voices of trauma in the legal system deserve to be heard, individually and collectively, even when it's difficult to listen"--

The book, therefore, provides an extensive discussion for handling many important drafting issues, such as patent eligibility considerations, as simply one important example. In addition to providing up-to-date legal analysis based on up-to-date case law, many other considerations that may affect how best to draft patent claims are discussed, such as underlying economics or markets, differences in technical arts, etc. Throughout the book, discussions are supported with many examples of patent claim drafting using state of the art technology examples.The book, consequently, covers a host of patent law considerations and doctrines that have the potential to affect the drafting of patent claims. The book highlights key principles using bolded text within text boxes throughout. In addition to listing key principles at the beginning of each chapter and in an appendix, the book also includes in an appendix a sample of patent application boilerplate that covers a wide range of existing technologies.

    Family lawyers are dealing with a burgeoning number of cases involving special needs children. These families have much higher divorce rates and their cases often involve more specialized handling. To meet these demands, this book takes a practical look at what special needs are, how they are relevant in the arena of divorce, and what lawyers can do to make the system work better for these children and their families.Special needs are often determined following the categories that the public education system considers eligible for special education services, including autism, physical limitation and health impairment, emotional disturbance, learning disability, and developmental delay, among many others. The author begins by discussing what special needs are in terms of legislation and how such cases are evaluated and then handled in the court. Issues addressed include the initial interview, drafting divorce petitions and motions, and legislation and case law.The Special Needs Child and Divorce, Second Edition examines how child support guidelines and standard visitation schedules often don't meet the needs of special needs children, and Chapter 6 provides a model child support chart, parenting plan, and modification for these cases. Subsequent chapters address other aspects raised by handling a case with a special needs child, including maintenance and property division, the roles of the parties in the divorce process, guardianships, special needs trusts, and other estate planning issues.Drawn from her years of experience in handling divorce and family court cases involving special needs children, the author provides numerous practice tips throughout the book. In addition, she includes valuable sample language and forms throughout the text that illustrate how modifications are needed to adequately address issues raised by a special needs child. Other chapters offer sample forms and documents that have been developed or adapted for use in divorce cases involving children with special needs and checklists to help guide you through the key elements of handling the case.

    An essential resource on lawyer ethics - revised and updated: The Annotated Model Rules of Professional Conduct is the ABA's definitive single-volume resource for information about how courts, disciplinary bodies, and ethics committees apply the lawyer ethics rules. The Tenth Edition incorporates all of the amendments the ABA has made to the Model Rules of Professional Conduct through February 2023 - including the 2020 amendments to Model Rule 1.8, permitting limited financial assistance to indigent clients under certain circumstances. This edition adds an annotation to Rule 1.0 (Terminology) and discussion of ethics issues relating to remote work, virtual law practice, fees paid in cryptocurrency, and recent efforts by some states to allow limited practice by nonlawyers.Comprehensive and authoritative: Each chapter begins with the rule and its comment, a link to charts comparing each state's rule with the Model Rule, and then presents a detailed discussion of how the rule has been applied. The book gives citations to thousands of court cases, ethics opinions, law review articles, and internet resources, as well as treatises, the Restatement (3rd) of the Law Governing Lawyers, and the legislative history of the Model Rules.For all jurisdictions and practice settings: All state jurisdictions base their ethics rules on the ABA Model Rules of Professional Conduct.Most federal courts use a variant of either the Model Rules or the home state's version of the Model Rules as the basis for lawyer discipline.Most specialty tribunals exercising their own disciplinary powers also look to the ethics rules, whether or not they have formally adopted them.State and federal courts constantly turn to the ethics rules when deciding disqualification motions, motions for sanctions, motions to suppress, motions to quash, and disputes over fees and fee division, discovery, class certification, and pro hac vice admission status.Suits involving lawyer malpractice and breach of fiduciary duty now routinely invoke the ethics rules, sometimes even in the jury instructions.
