Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 22 years ago
The author of this book is a respected writer and a teacher of legal writing. He knows his way around grammar, and it shows in this book. It contains a lot of detailed advice for constructing readable and sensible legal sentences. In a few places it was, in fact, perhaps a little too dense and detailed for the typical lawyer. Still, lawyers need to know how to create clear and correct sentences, and this book shows how.The next part of the book discusses "the content of legal writing." It addresses the basics of legal analysis in the context of a traditional legal memo. Though the treatment is fairly general and short, it does present a lot of basic and reliable advice for writing a legal analysis.
