By Kathryn Hughes | Monday, July 8, 2013

Coming today to LitigationWorld: Litigators may not know it, but they're trapped in a paradox. Because they tend to focus on a specific practice area, they limit their career.

In this issue of LitigationWorld, TechnoLawyer publisher and erstwhile litigator Neil Squillante suggests that litigation boutiques and departments organize along functional lines instead to create dream teams for every case they handle. Also, don't miss the LitigationWorld Pick of the Week for the most cringeworthy mistakes in legal writing.
