The Handbook for the New Legal Writer

The Handbook for the New Legal Writer teaches the concepts and skills
covered in the two-semester 1L legal writing and research course in a
way that meets the needs of today's millennial law students. The focus
of this new coursebook is on showing, not telling, students how to write
effective legal documents. The authors provide practical instruction on
the basic writing and research tasks an attorney does daily. The text
covers objective writing, persuasive writing, and legal research and
citation using a "handbook" format, which allows easy access to key
information. It also provide the option of using the book as a reference
tool later in law practice.
