Heidi K. Brown is the author of the newly published book Fundamentals of Federal Litigation, a how-to guide for first-year federal litigators and new litigation practitioners. It provides practical guidance on every step of a federal court litigation, from filing to complaint to pursuing an appeal. The book contains flowcharts, checklists, templates, sample forms and timelines to assist the new practitioner in generating top-quality legal work in a quick turnaround time. Designed to close the knowledge gap between law school and first-year associate status, the book allows new lawyers to more readily serve their law firms and clients from their very first day of practice. This book is a must-have for all law firm summer associate and new associate programs, as well as litigation departments in corporate counsel offices.
