Getting Started With Legal Writing

 

Legal writing is comprised of two things - the law and your client’s facts.

Therefore, before you begin writing, you will have to understand the law and the facts. Knowing the value of facts allows you to become a master of the facts relating to your client’s situation. If there are gaps in the facts, try to fill them in by speaking with your client or doing additional research as necessary. Once you know the facts, next comes knowing the law. This video provides tips to ensuring you have both pieces before you start writing.
