Ethics and regulation have become catchwords of the late 1990s, yet relatively little has been written about the ethical discourse and regulation of the legal professions in England and Wales. This book represents the first attempt to subject the ethical discourse of the English legal professions to in-depth analysis and sustained critique.

Evidence and Proof in Scotland: Context and Critique

This is the first textbook to set the Scots law of evidence against a modern backdrop of legal thought and empirical research. It examines the non-legal dimensions of evidence and proof through the lens of legal philosophy, procedure, sociology, science and psychology to analyse the contexts that affect the handling of facts and the process of proof in Scotland. Drawing extensively on socio-legal research, the book provides an accurate picture of how fact-finding works in Scotland - giving students the foundation for a complete, critical and contextual understanding of Scots evidence law.

This accessible How To Guideprovides practical, expert guidance on how to successfully set up and run a law clinic. Donald Nicolson, JoNel Newman and Richard Grimes explore the process of designing a clinic to address unmet legal needs, enhance student learning, and maximise the additional benefits of a clinic. How to Set up and Run a Law Clinicis a comprehensive guide to the theory and practice of running a clinic. Based on the authors' first-hand experience, the book analyses a variety of day-to-day issues that can arise when setting up a law clinic and provides invaluable solutions to these commonly occurring challenges. In investigating how clinics may be run, and what services they can provide, the book investigates possible tensions between educational and social justice objectives, and how they may be resolved to meet these dual aims. The book examines how the expectations of all stakeholders, including those with regulatory oversight of clinical activities, can be managed and met. Those working within law schools who are wishing to set up or expand law clinics will find this book to be highly useful. It will be a valuable resource for those aiming to enhance employability and experiential learning offerings. Students, and legal practitioners, wishing to gain insight into the value of clinical work will also find this to be a helpful guide.
