Law Firms Are Getting Bigger
The book covers an interesting narrative that takes place mostly in the 70s, where you have a series of free speech oriented challenges to restrictions on lawyer advertising. You get a culture of competition that spawns things like American lawyer, which then sort of feeds into this... The magazine, not just the entity. And you have this sort of reinforcing loop where lawyers are chasing after clients, accumulating power. Law firms are getting bigger, and that sort of leads us to modern big law.
