WRITING FOR LAW AND PRACTICE:<br />

ADVANCED LEGAL WRITING,<br />

2ND EDITION<br />

Fajans, Falk and Shapo<br />

This book organises documents into three<br />

sections that correspond with the three<br />

major modes of written communication in<br />

the law: litigating, informing and persuading,<br />

and rule making—each with its own signature<br />

writing skills.<br />

Part One focuses on pleadings and motions,<br />

where concept is primary and expression<br />

secondary. Part Two covers letters, memos, trial<br />

and appellate briefs, and judicial opinions, which<br />

require clarity, perseverance, and creativity. Part<br />

Three covers contracts, legislation, and wills,<br />

where conceptualisation is inextricable from<br />

clear and precise expression.<br />
