Description:

In this two-hour workshop, lawyers learn practical strategies for drafting effective, clear emails and memos.

Participants will learn strategies for:
drafting effective introductions
providing useful roadmaps
writing clear, concrete sentences
avoiding common errors in grammar and usage

This workshop emphasizes general legal-writing skills, and examples and exercises are drawn from both litigation and transactional practice.  Participants leave the program with specific, easy-to-implement strategies for improving their everyday legal writing.  Materials include a tip sheet summarizing the issues covered.
