THE VERSATILE LEGAL PRACTITIONER IN OUR FAST CHANGING SOCIETY: NEED FOR AND CHALLENGES

Abstract

There is a popular saying that: jack of all trades masters none. This applies to legal practice and legal practitioners. A legal practitioner is a human, and thus encumbered and bedeviled with so many frailties and limitations imposed on him by his imperfect nature which is aggravated and exacerbated by time, unforeseen and unexpected events and occurrences. So, there is need for legal practitioners to obey the law governing division of labours in order to attain desired results. In this article, we are going to look at the versatile legal practitioner in our fast changing society.
