Legal education must be better aligned with student and market needs. This involves two key components for legal training: (1) acquiring new skills necessary to function successfully in the marketplace– whether as a young graduate or as a seasoned lawyer; and (2) gaining practical experience in advance of market entry. Knowledge of the law is no longer the sole requisite for attorneys; they must also be conversant in how technology and process affect its efficient delivery. These new skill sets must be integrated into legal education. Lawyers must also develop their social skills and learn to work collaboratively—with their peers as well as with other professionals and paraprofessionals. Clients expect solutions to their problems that often require input from a multidisciplinary team of professionals –tax, finance, technological, regulatory, etc. Doctors serve as model; they collaborate with technicians, paraprofessionals, and other specialists to render health care services. Law students, likewise, must acquire practical skills to be more ‘practice ready’ when they hit the marketplace.
