The nature of the costs and benefits of lawyers' involvement in the administrative process is explained. Drawing on insights from social psychology, an explanation for why lawyers' perspectives on regulatory issues differ dramatically from those of their non-regulatory colleagues is presented. Some of the benefits from adding lawyers and lawyers' perspectives to the regulatory mix are described, and the costs that lawyer involvement imposes on a regulatory system are discussed. It is concluded that the inability to quantify the costs and benefits associated with lawyer involvement in regulation makes it impossible to decide with any level of certainty whether the benefits outweigh the costs. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: N holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
