Publisher Summary 1
For students, Edwards (Mercer U.) details the process of writing legal memos, professional correspondence, and legal briefs. The volume follows the traditional legal writing course syllabus. After explaining the legal system and lawyer's roles, she covers working with raw material for analysis, organizational formats for communicating the analysis of a legal question (IRAC or CRAC structures), the components of documents, citation and style, and oral arguments. Core chapters are followed by optional chapters for more in-depth study. Sample letters, memos, and briefs are included in the appendices. This edition contains an additional format option for drafting a Question Presented, it has been reorganized, and citation and quotation material has been revised to match current editions of the ALWD Citation Manual and the Bluebook.
