William Hornsby examines the changes to the nature and structure of law practice over the last half century. Providers of personal legal services in areas such as domestic relations, personal real estate transactions, and individual debtor’s bankruptcies have been transformed by changes in markets and technologies. This essay explores these transformations, their causes, and their impacts on both practitioners and clients. Finally, it concludes with recommendations for law schools to update curricula accordingly.
