I podcasten fortæller forfatteren Steven J. Harper om sin bog The Lawyer Bubble: A Profession in Crisis som er fra 2013. Steven er tidligere partner hos et af USA’s største advokatfirmaer, Kirkland & Ellis. I The Lawyer Bubble argumenterer Steven J. Harper for, at juridiske job forsvinder, ikke på grund af økonomiske kortsigtede udsving, men på grund af stærke langsigtede tendenser. Man kan argumentere for, om vi står over for en boble, men rådgivning og juridiske ydelser, står over for nogle grundlæggende ændringer, som Harper beskriver i sin interessante bog. Harper, der trak sig tilbage som partner i 2008, hævder, at partnere og ledere på advokatkontorer er en stor del af problemet. Han hævder, at ledere i store firmaer er for fokuserede på at maksimere overskuddet for de største, omsætningsskabende partnere - på bekostning af junioradvokater og firmaets langsigtede interesse. I podcasten kommer Steven ind på, hvad danske advokatvirksomheder skal være opmærksomme på Vi hører meget gerne fra dig, hvis du en god ide til hvem vi skal lave en podcast med.

Steven Harper graduated magna cum laude from Harvard Law, made partner at one of the most prestigious law firms in the world by 30, and spent the next quarter century representing big name clients in bet-the-company cases. Then things got interesting. Here we discuss phase two of his career, in which he becomes an outspoken critic of the culture and economics of Big Law.
A friend of mine who had just graduated from law school said “Law school is great. The trouble is that when you are done you’re a lawyer.” Steven J. Harper would, after a fashion, agree (though he would probably add that law schools are not that great). Harper’s book, The Lawyer Bubble: A Profession in Crisis (Basic Books, 2013), is a stem-to-stern indictment of legal education and the legal profession; he argues that the entire system by which we train and employ (or don’t employ) attorneys is broken. Honesty, humility, and public service are out; “truthiness,” hubris, and greed are in. The very idea of what it means to be a lawyer has been corrupted. Happily, Harper has some suggestions about how we might reform the legal industry. This is a terrific and thought provoking book. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
