Reviews

Moorhead et al. have provided readers with a trove of high-quality empirical data on in-house counsel along with careful, nuanced analyses of their role conceptions, professional orientations, ethics, and role in risk management... the authors are to be commended for this impressive contribution to socio-legal scholarship on the legal profession. The book is rigorous, thoughtful, and provocative. Not only have they greatly increased our understanding of in-house counsel in England and Wales, but they have also opened up promising avenues for comparative research. -- Lynn Mather * Journal of Law and Society *
