Law and Disorder - Confessions of a Pupil Barrister

Zusatztext 'For all those aspiring advocates who believe they are entering a glamorous or even principled profession! this book is essential reading.' Informationen zum Autor Tim Kevan practised as a barrister in London for ten years, during which time he wrote or co-wrote ten law books and was a regular legal pundit for television and radio. He is the author of Law and Disorder , which was described by broadcaster Jeremy Vine as 'a wonderful, racing read - well-drawn, smartly plotted and laugh-out-loud', and Law and Peace . He is the co-author of Why Lawyers Should Surf (with Dr Michelle Tempest). He now lives by the sea in Braunton in North Devon where he surfs and continues to write the BabyBarista Blog for the Guardian . He is also the co-founder of two businesses, CPD Webinars and Law Brief Publishing. Brought up in Minehead in Somerset, he was educated at Cambridge and was a scholar of the Middle Temple. Zusammenfassung It is BabyBarista's first day as a pupil barrister. He has just one year to win the sought-after prize of a tenancy in chambers. Competition is fierce: there's TopFirst, who has a prize-winning CV and an ego to match; BusyBody, a human whirlwind on a husband hunt; and wide-eyed Worrier, buckling under the weight of the world.
