This article, based on interviews with the Justices, focuses on the way that Lord Neuberger interpreted the role and how his colleagues thought that he carried out the role. Taking Steven Lukes’ account of “power” as its starting point the piece seeks to show how Lord Neuberger harnessed the power of the president to enhance the reputation of the Court and to develop a form of group decision making based on team work which was far removed from the operation of the House of Lords even under the leadership of Lord Bingham. The Miller No. 1 case (2017) is used as a case study of presidential power in operation.","PeriodicalId":43893,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of the Legal Profession","volume":"28 1","pages":"107 - 126"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2021-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/09695958.2021.1877716","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46289076","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The impact of lawyer fees on lawyer behavior has been discussed theoretically and anecdotally, mostly from an aspect of economic incentives. Yet little research has empirically examined this issue. This article aims to add one empirical study. I conducted a vignette experiment with 206 Japanese divorce lawyers. Scenarios of divorce disputes involving certain ethical dilemmas were used to measure partisanship. The description of fee arrangement in the scenarios varied to compare three conditions: (a) no specific description of lawyer fee (the control condition), (b) JPY 300 thousand retainer with additional JPY 300 thousand contingency (a typical fee arrangement in Japan), and (c) JPY 450 thousand retainer with no contingency (a lump-sum prepaid arrangement). I found that partisanship of lawyers became higher in conditions with fee descriptions, when they were conscious of (the existence of) the fee. This phenomenon was observed in condition (c) of a lump-sum prepaid fee arrangement as well as in condition (b) of a typical fee arrangement combining a retainer and contingency. The findings indicate that the reciprocity norm, rather than economic incentives, may have a power on the relationship between lawyer fees and lawyer behavior.","PeriodicalId":43893,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of the Legal Profession","volume":"28 1","pages":"319 - 334"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2020-12-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/09695958.2020.1859378","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44805259","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Drawing on five months ethnographic fieldwork in Russian legal aid NGOs that represent asylum seekers and interviews with the immigration lawyers who worked there, this paper casts more light on the file-based model of delivering justice, whereby refugees and their stories cannot be constructed differently than through the materiality of the case file. This paper argues that the specific relationship between the immigration lawyers and their clients’ case files has not developed in a vacuum, but can be traced back to the traditions of the legal profession in Russia. It is also illustrative of three specific traits of the broader Russian legal culture: legal formalism, the inconsistency of the legal process and the hyperbolic reality-mediating function attached to documentary evidence.","PeriodicalId":43893,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of the Legal Profession","volume":"28 1","pages":"85 - 105"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2020-12-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/09695958.2020.1854768","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46760965","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In order to accelerate the rebirth of the Chinese legal profession, a new practice-oriented legal qualification, the Juris Master, was created by the Chinese State. However, since its inception, the Juris Master has been beset with problems. This article analyses the major problems in the Juris Master in terms of educational goals, the teaching content and teaching methods and the management of faculties, and examines their causes from the political, cultural, and social perspectives. In response to these problems, this article suggests solutions in four aspects: competence-based educational goals, problem-based learning methods, an integrative international curriculum, and part-time faculty employment systems.","PeriodicalId":43893,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of the Legal Profession","volume":"29 1","pages":"209 - 228"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2020-12-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/09695958.2020.1848843","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41495411","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This article evaluates this system – it has several positive features, but there are also items of concern. These include delays in resolving complaints, especially at the Legal Complaints Review Officer level. Whether there is sufficient publicity on the workings of the disciplinary system, its outcomes, and the naming of disciplined lawyers, is also considered. There is a particular focus on the lack of searchable full-text Standards Committee decisions, and the requirement that the approval of the Board of the New Zealand Law Society be obtained before publishing the identity of a censured lawyer. The final focus is on people’s willingess to make reports and complaints to the Law Society about lawyers suspected of wrongdoing. It has come to light recently that, at least in the sensitive areas of harassment and bullying, there is a reluctance to complain. People with knowledge of likely wrong-doing by lawyers must be willing to complain if a complaints-driven process like New Zealand’s is to function effectively.","PeriodicalId":43893,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of the Legal Profession","volume":"28 1","pages":"159 - 180"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2020-11-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/09695958.2020.1815540","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49663658","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The withdrawal of legal aid for most civil law claims has led to a greater need for pro bono legal services. This article describes and analyses the findings of an empirical study with solicitors to explore their views on pro bono. It seeks to understand perceptions of pro bono work and examine the reasons why individuals choose to give their time for free to help those who have unmet legal needs. Following an analysis of interview data, this article argues there is a significant commitment to pro bono within the legal profession, but there tensions associated with the delivery of pro bono legal services. This study builds on the work of academics in the US and Australia to add to the literature on our understanding of pro bono within the context of England and Wales.","PeriodicalId":43893,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of the Legal Profession","volume":"28 1","pages":"265 - 278"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2020-10-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/09695958.2020.1830099","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48715001","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It uses a computer-assisted analysis of trade magazines from 1985 to 2015 to document the changes that have taken place in lawyers’ perceptions of their work and their role in society over the last thirty years. The results show that, although a professional logic can be found in Canadian lawyers’ discourse, Canadian lawyers are exposed to a variety of logics that provide them with new vocabularies and frames of reference. The decreasing importance of the “professional” discourse suggests that significant changes may be about to take place in the field, as actors develop new strategies to legitimize alternative practices and work configurations.","PeriodicalId":43893,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of the Legal Profession","volume":"28 1","pages":"351 - 365"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2020-10-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/09695958.2020.1830098","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44396389","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
