In An Equal Place, Scott Cummings focuses on the movement for a living wage in Los Angeles and explores greater implications for the role of contemporary lawyers outside of the courtroom. The campaign to implement a living wage in L.A. was the most famous effort in the country, and advocates for it were largely successful, in part because they used the law to advance their agenda.
Scott Cummings is a Professor of Law at the University of California, Los Angeles, where he is also the faculty coordinator of the Epstein Program in Public Interest Law and Policy. He specializes in the legal profession, law and social change and economic development.
