over thirty years, believes a highly focused approach to your written advocacy - correspondence,
written negotiation, Part 36 offers and skeleton arguments, written opening notes for trial, closing
submissions and costs submissions - will put you in the best possible position to do just that. The
importance of oral advocacy in deciding cases is not in dispute, but increasingly judges form pretrial
opinions of the likely outcome from written material, notably the skeleton or opening note. The
application, trial or appeal then becomes a process to measure the judge's pre-formed view. The
effective written closing submission will become part of the judgment. This book not only offers a
practical and comprehensive guide to effective written advocacy, but provides worked examples
drawn from real cases contributed from leading advocates such as Sue Carr QC, David
Etherington QC, Lord Faulks QC, Andrew Hachhauser QC, Richard Lissack QC, Lord Pannick
QC, and Lord Sumption. Of particular interest to both practitioners and students of litigation
practice, the second edition offers 17 new examples together with a discussion on written
advocacy in family and criminal cases. Invaluable to the practising lawyer, this book will also be
compelling reading for anyone with an interest in using the legal process. "Goodman has
produced a first-class practical guide to modern written advocacy. The beauty of Goodman's new
edition lies with the working examples from leading current advocates so we know what it is that

the judges want. Effective Written Advocacy is an advocate's bible both invaluable and
compelling...should be compulsory reading for all law students." Phillip Goodman, Richmond
