Admirably clear, concise, down-to-earth, and powerful - all too
often, legal writing embodies none of these qualities. Its
reputation for obscurity and needless legalese is widespread. Since
2001 Bryan A. Garner's "Legal Writing in Plain English" has helped
address this problem by providing lawyers, judges, paralegals, law
students, and legal scholars with sound advice and practical tools
for improving their written work. Now the leading guide to clear
writing in the field, this indispensable volume encourages legal
writers to challenge conventions and offers valuable insights into
the writing process that will appeal to other professionals: how to
organize ideas, create and refine prose, and improve editing
skills. Accessible and witty, "Legal Writing in Plain English"
draws on real-life writing samples that Garner has gathered through
decades of teaching experience. Trenchant advice covers all types
of legal materials, from analytical and persuasive writing to legal
drafting, and the book's principles are reinforced by sets of
basic, intermediate, and advanced exercises in each section. In
this new edition, Garner preserves the successful structure of the
original while adjusting the content to make it even more
class-room-friendly. He includes case examples from the past decade
and addresses the widespread use of legal documents in electronic
formats. His book remains the standard guide for producing the
jargon-free language that clients demand and courts reward.
