Making Your Point: A Practical Guide to Persuasive Legal Writing
ALM Books, July 2007, Pages: 250
Are your arguments as compelling as they should be? Could your briefs be briefer? This valuable and practical guide, based on three years of columns that appeared in The New Jersey Law Journal, examines the legal writing errors that lawyers typically make and why they make them. Making Your Point: A Practical Guide to Persuasive Legal Writing provides you with a complete writing strategy-from understanding the composing process to establishing credibility to injecting perspective and emphasis, and beyond. The author, a practicing attorney, drew on years of experience correcting his own writing and supervising other lawyers to arrive at “field-tested” solutions that work. Each article is like a miniature writing workshop, and each concludes with an exercise that tests the reader's mastery of the writing process. This eye-opening book will change the way you think about legal writing.
Author Bio: Mr. Oettle is a graduate of Cornell University and Harvard Law School and a partner in the Newark, New Jersey law office of Sills Cummis Epstein & Gross P.C., where he chairs the firm's writing program.
