Host Krystal Norton is joined in the Lounge by Professor Kathy Vinson of Suffolk University Law School and Professor David Romantz of the University of Memphis Cecil C. Humphreys School of Law to talk legal analysis and CREAC. As the co-authors of "Legal Analysis: The Fundamental Skill" and creators of the now widely-applied paradigm CREAC, Professors Romantz and Vinson discuss the thought behind the paradigm, the components that make up CREAC, and common pitfalls or red flags students ought to keep in mind as they first start using this tool. This episode covers the basics and a second episode, to be released next week, covers more advanced issues. Law students will walk away from this initial conversation with some tips, with a feeling that they are not alone, and a couple of laughs.
The book is celebrating its 25th anniversary this year, so feel free to give the professors a shoutout or congratulations on social media or the next time you see them!
