How to Think Like a Lawyer--and Why

A Common-Sense Guide to Everyday Dilemmas

A law professor and author teaches non-attorneys how to think like a lawyer to gain advantage in their lives—whether buying a house, negotiating a salary, or choosing the right healthcare.

Lawyers aren’t like other people. They often argue points that are best left alone or look for mistakes in menus "just because." While their scrupulous attention to detail may be annoying, it can also be a valuable set of problem-solving skills.
