Читать книгу How to Be a Lawyer - Jason Mendelson - Страница 28

This is another class that we are going to struggle with advising you what to get out of it. Unless you are going into property law and/or trusts and estates, this class is another mandatory head scratcher. If we squint, we can tell you that some of the logic games of figuring out who owns a piece of property due to an imperfect fee simple granted by a fertile octogenarian who enacted a rabbi trust might help you become a better critical thinker, but other than that, we are mostly clueless.

On a personal note, we would tell you to pay attention to the major concepts so that if you buy a house one day, you'll better understand the real estate contract, but other than that, at least it's more fun than civil procedure. We highly recommend a course in real estate transactions taught by a practicing adjunct.

Bottom line: Most of us found this class easier and more interesting than civil procedure. It's also often a more important subject matter on most state bar exams, so there is that.
