The Handbook for the New Legal Writer teaches the concepts and skills covered in the first-year legal writing and research course in a way that meets the needs of today's law students. The coursebook's focus is on showing, not telling, students how to write effective legal documents using numerous exles and step-by-step instruction. The authors provide practical lessons on the basic writing and research tasks attorneys perform daily and include annotated sles written by judges, practitioners, and the authors. The text covers objective writing, persuasive writing, legal research, and citation using a “handbook' format, allowing easy access to key information. It also provides the option of using the book as a reference tool later in law practice.
