Law students, if you can’t explain it simply, you don’t understand it well enough. This is true for your readings, exam writing, and legal writing in law school. Also true for negotiations, oral arguments and law in motion in the practice. Hone this skill now and watch your grades increase. Enter the practice with it and narrow the experience gap, persuade opponents, judges, and juries, and be the best advocate for your clients. #lawschool #lawstudent #lawstudents

Grateful to University of Michigan Law School! Not only does their library have a copy of our book...they have a program on Psychologically-Informed Lawyering to help lawyers apply psychological knowledge to improve client representation. Did you know? Understanding psychological factors makes legal practice more effective by offering strategies to help meet the underlying core needs of clients & legal professionals. Legal professional skills informed by psychological knowledge can meaningfully help address challenges across many areas of law. In a profession that constantly deals with conflict, it still surprises me how rarely we specifically include psychology among our practice tools to improve legal strategy. And, in turn, enhance the resilience & well-being of both lawyers and their clients. Also the Michigan Bar Journal has an article that mentions our book...linked in comments. If your law school, court library or firm doesn't have our book yet it's linked in comments too! If your organization is interested in learning more about our book and the support it can offer, feel free to message me.

Esteemed colleagues, Happy Friday to All! I am in my second semester of law school and preparing a presentation for my legal research and writing course. My topic is the importance of "The Tale" based on Ross Guberman's book "Point Made." I would like to obtain additional thoughts and opinions from practicing attorneys to share with my class of what you believe are some of the most important things to do when telling your client's Tale. Thank you in advance. Cheers, Amanda #Dear1L #lawyers #lawstudents #curious1L
