Inside Straight

"Above the Law" is one of the most popular legal blogs in the world. Its vast readership ranges from managing partners and general counsel of leading global firms to disaffected young associates and unemployed law school graduates. What happened when "Above the Law" recruited Mark Herrmann-a best-selling author, former BigLaw partner, and senior in-house lawyer ? to write a twice-weekly column for the blog? Combine the insights of the author, the vitriol of the anonymous "commenters," and the wisdom of crowds, and the result is this fascinating and revealing book, Inside Straight Advice About Lawyering, In-House and Out, That Only the Internet Could Provide.
