In this episode, Lori D. Johnson, Associate Professor of Law at the University of Nevada Las Vegas William S. Boyd School of Law, and Melissa Love Koenig, Associate Professor of Legal Writing at Marquette University Law School, discuss their article "Walk the Line: Aristotle & The Ethics of Narrative," which is published in the Nevada Law Journal. They observe that the power of narrative can conflict with the duty of zealous representation and the attorney's duties as an office of the court. And they explain how attorneys can draw on wisdom from Aristotle's Ethics to avoid this problem. Johnson is on Twitter at @LoriDelandeyJ.
