Irwin Law demonstrated the vision to support a series of

practical handbooks aimed at lawyers looking to develop

skills largely ignored by law schools and bar associations,

and at a price within reach of young lawyers still saddled

with student loans. In particular, Irwin Law’s Alisa Pose-

sorski and Lesley Steeve have been instrumental in turn-

ing this vision into reality.

Finally, the energy, enthusiasm, and talent of the mem-

bers of the Advocacy Club and my classes at the University

of Ottawa’s Common Law Section deserve acknowledg-

ment. ey have endured the constant trial and error that

goes into teaching in a novel method. Some of the exercises

were less than wonderful, but the Club members met each

challenge with good cheer, collegiality, and imagination.
