This essay clears ground for a concrete understanding of creative lawyering. Approaching the lawyer as a kind of artist, I first argue that lawyers work with questions. Then I argue that posing new and solvable legal questions requires two abilities: 1) facility in moving between the concrete world of facts and the abstract realm of concepts; and 2) the ability to survive in between the common roles that people play in society. This second skill in turn requires a lawyer to balance his life inside and outside of conventional roles.
