[En anglais seulement] The Problem Solving Workshop is a three-week intensive program that all first-year Harvard Law School students are required to take.

As is set out in the course description, the Harvard workshop allows students to 鈥渃onfront client problems鈥攆ramed from the clients鈥� and attorneys鈥� points of view and designed expressly for the Workshop鈥攊n the way practicing lawyers do, from the very beginning, before the facts are all known, before the client鈥檚 goals are clarified, before the full range of options is explored, and before a course of conduct is chosen.

Rather than teach law in the abstract, the course poses questions like these: What sort of problems do lawyers solve? How do they solve them? What intellectual constructs do they bring to bear? What practical judgments?聽And, as students find the answers to those questions, they learn to combine their knowledge of the law with practical judgment to help clients attain their goals within the bounds of the law.鈥�

Professor Rakoff will share his experiences and insights in running this unique course that bridges the gap between academic study and practical lawyering.
