It walks the reader through each step of completing such an assignment, giving highly specific instructions and explanations. The book does what it teaches students to do in their writing, i.e. The goal of this legal writing book is to make it easy for students to learn and remember the basic elements of writing a good legal memo. The book takes any mystery out of memo writing and can be used as a reference when the students become practicing lawyers. it makes it easy for the reader to understand and implement the author's suggestions.
