LexisNexis Bookstore Top-Sellers: What Lawyers Read
Business Wire, July 11, 2006
DAYTON, Ohio -- Where the hot national topics go, so goeth attorneys who need to hone expertise on those topics. The top sellers on the LexisNexis bookstore (www.lexisnexis.com/bookstore) mirror national news trends - bankruptcy, immigration, patents and the graying of America.
Likewise, as continuing education is important, so too are tips of the trade for trial attorneys. For the last two years, the hottest-selling book published by LexisNexis is Cross-Examination: Science and Techniques by Larry Pozner and Roger J. Dodd, two of the country's top trial attorneys who travel the nation teaching fundamentals on winning in the courtroom. What could be construed as sister publications because juries and trials go hand in hand, another litigation topic on the leading best-seller on LexisNexis.com is Practical Jury Dynamics, by Dr. Sunwolf.
Last year's bankruptcy legislation put Collier front and center with its reputable Collier on Bankruptcy library of reference books and pamphlets. An entourage of the nation's most-esteemed and practiced attorneys in bankruptcy law contributes as editors and editorial board members of Collier on Bankruptcy and its offshoots.
The graying of America keeps elder law in the forefront of topics, and Florida (with its high population of mature adults) and California with its populace are two states for which attorneys seek resources on wills and trusts.
Patents, trademarks and copyrights collectively are a quagmire. Two popular resources have held positions as top sellers for years, including Chisum on Patents and Patent Law Digest both by Donald Chisum.
