Question of the Week

Who are your lawyer gurus?

In a post at Georgia Criminal Appellate Law Blog, lawyer Scott Key cites inspiration from MacCarthy on Cross-Examination.

Terence MacCarthy was on the bench when Key's team advanced to the final round of a mock trial competition. "And I got to do some Terry McCarthy stuff in front of Terry McCarthy. It was the courtroom equivalent of my son having LeBron James as a referee in a little-league basketball game."

So this week, we'd like to ask you: Who are your lawyer gurus? What books do you swear by?

Answer in the comments.
