Property and Lawyering, 3d (American Casebook Series)

This casebook is uniquely responsive to the suggestions of CLEA's Best Practices and Carnegie's Educating Lawyers. It integrates Carnegie's three apprenticeships--the cognitive/analytical, practical skills and professional identity--by combining the theory and analysis of a traditional casebook with reality-based lawyering exercises that reinforce doctrinal knowledge, develop lawyering skills and introduce professional values. The third edition offers several significant updates, including an introduction to the Restatement's new streamlined approach to estates and future interests, as well as enhanced coverage of mortgages and foreclosures designed to help students appreciate today's headlines.
