I am researching a journal article on the law practice of Abraham Lincoln. One of the questions that has always interested me was how his law practice shaped him as a wartime leader and president. Often ranked as our best president (although my libertarian friend Gene is lobbying for Warren Harding), I have often wondered how Mr. Lincoln’s law practice formed him and contributed to his success. And by extension, I also question how the practice of family law shapes us, both as lawyers and as citizens?
the three lessons apply to many other areas of the law in addition to family law.
Great article. You inspire and are inspiring! Peter
