Piccard's U.S. Legal Writing for International Lawyers and Law Students

Faculty who adopt this book will not need to create hypothetical assignments. Students read real cases and the real court documents filed in those cases. Students thus learn how lawyers and judges actually write and think, adding a dimension to their education that other books simply do not offer. This book makes it easier for students to learn and for their teachers to teach. It can be adapted for one- or two-semester courses, as it covers every aspect of legal writing that is usually taught in the first year of law school.
