    Clients Rarely Visit Their Lawyers' Offices Anymore - Above the Law (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    For much of the history of the legal profession, clients visiting their lawyers’ offices was simply part of practicing law. Clients would come in for meetings, sit in conference rooms, review documents, and discuss their matters face-to-face with counsel.

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    One of the stranger practices I have encountered during my career is when judges decide motions at oral argument and then direct one of the lawyers to handwrite an order reflecting the court’s decision. This does not happen in every court, and plenty of judges either prepare their own orders or direct the parties to submit a proposed order after an appearance. However, I have seen judges announce a ruling and then expect counsel, sometimes right there in the courtroom, to write out an order that
