About the Author
Mark Herrmann
"Mark Herrmann has penned a well-written and clear guide on how to be an effective law firm associate. It's also funny. . . . Were this material covered in some big-firm internal handbook, it would surely bore us to tears. But Herrmann's cutting wit and lively writing bring to life such painful topics as how to write a brief, how to treat your assistant, and how to take a deposition."
- Peter Lattman, at The Wall Street Journal Law blog

"[I]f you want to become a real lawyer (or mentor a young'un to become one), and you really don't know how, then this is really the book for you. . . . Really!"
- The Honorable Richard G. Kopf, Senior United States District Judge for the District of Nebraska, at Hercules and the Umpire
"[A]bsolutely addictive, unputdown-able. . . . Curmudgeon's Guide pulls off - with great elan - a technique that many writers attempt, only to crash and burn in the face of its extraordinary degree of difficulty. That technique is to deliver deadly accurate truths veiled in laugh-out-loud humor."
- Bruce MacEwen, Law Firm Consultant, at Adam Smith, Esq.
