Lawyers trade on brainpower for a living. The brain is a beautiful and only partially-understood organ; far more complex than most man-made machines. Machines, when they are free of defects and are properly serviced and maintained, are reliable in their efficiency and execution. The human brain is not. Each action or decision is comprised of conscious and unconscious processes that affect outcomes, and these processes are influenced by numerous factors. The purpose of this session is to introduce you to critical thought processes that affect key decisions in legal decision-making and equip you with the tools needed to increase the likelihood of positive outcomes.
Speakers:
- L. Song Richardson, Dean and Chancellor’s Professor of Law, University of California Irvine School of Law
- Hon. Kirk Nakamura, Presiding Judge, Superior Court of Orange County
