The goal of this legal writing book is to make it easy for students to learn and remember the basic elements of writing a good legal memo. Whereas other books aim to be comprehensive in teaching the many skills a lawyer might need, this book focuses only on one type of assignment that many young lawyers are given: "Find the answer to this particular legal question, and write a memo explaining that answer." It walks the reader through each step of completing such an assignment, giving highly specific instructions and explanations. The book takes any mystery out of memo writing and can be used as a reference when the students become practicing lawyers. The book does what it teaches students to do in their writing, i.e. it makes it easy for the reader to understand and implement the author's suggestions.
If you could have one book...
| Customer Rating: | | on legal writing, this should be it. It is without a doubt a far more relevant and purposeful guide to writing a memo than one of those stale books you likely bought in law school as part of your legal writing class. I am a practicing attorney and the majority of my high stress assignments are simply to write a memo on a particular issue, and this is the book I turn to with confidence. Sadly I did not use this book in law school, but I do wish I had. If you know someone who is in the legal profession or about to enter - do them a favor and buy them this short, concise guide to memo writing. I believe some of the top-tier schools have started to use this book and that makes sense to me. It is the new standard for legal writing guides as far as I am concerned. |
