This book is for law students and practitioners who want to be refreshed on the fundamentals of effective lawyering: fundamentals that they likely learned the first year of law school, but perhaps have forgotten..

I purchased this book as a resource for the paralegal legal writing class I teach at a community college. I found it well organized in clear and concise language. I highly recommend it as a staple in anyone's library.. Moses Muchiri said A useful handbook. This book is predominantly meant for the American reader as it is based on American legal forms of practice. But after going through it severally, I must recommend it for all lawyers especially of the common law practice domain. The emphasis on simplicity in legal expression and the useful examples on how to draft the usual memoranda, correspondence, briefs, opinions will be very useful not just to the younger lawyers hoping to avoid the common and frequent mistakes, but also to senior lawyers. It adds to the finer strokes of the practice.
