About the Book

Albert Stark takes us on a journey through his first fifteen years as a lawyer. Sixteen chapters, written with the pace and interest of a novel, teach lessons in time management, fee negotiation, finding information, and using it advantageously. From his first assignment as a public defender to a maze of legal challenges and the clients and adversaries that go with them, Stark poignantly describes the pitfalls and disillusionments, as well as the triumphs, that lay in the path of a lawyer seeking independence by making a name for himself, becoming financially independent, and intellectually independent.



“Insightful, humorous and human, just like Albert Stark himself. Should be must reading for every young lawyer - and anyone who relishes a fascinating and superbly written book.”

Bob Denney, President, Robert Denney Associates, Inc.

“An extraordinarily well-written account of the life of a lawyer. Absorbing!”

David Maister, author and consultant
