Morrison and DeCiani use a real-life theme to prepare students to handle the everyday ethical situations facing legal assistants. Several learning features expand upon this theme. Focus On features offer interviews with practicing paralegals. Paralegals in the Spotlight summarize real-life ethical situations taken from legal assistant magazines and journals. Tips for the Paralegal include a list of ways to avoid or deal with ethical problems, while Interplay boxes illustrate inter-relationships of ethical rules. Exercises and cases edited in the language of the court add to the applied nature of the text.
