Good legal writing is an inherently ethical practice and fundamental to professionalism and lawyering.

Legal Writing: Academic and Professional Communication emphasises the link between legal writing and ethics as it guides readers through phases of the writing process and helps them develop effective legal writing skills essential for both academic and professional contexts. The book covers a range of academic writing commonly encountered by undergraduate and postgraduate law students including case notes, problem questions and essays. It also explores specific forms of legal writing required in the profession, through client letters, memoranda, appellate briefs and reports to support novice writers in understanding their ethical obligations and developing a professional voice.

  • Extensive learning materials including a grammar primmer, theories of writing and comparative tables outlining professional rules for ongoing reference
