Customer Reviews

Great examples...easy to follow

I used this book religiously when I wrote my brief for legal skills I. I ended up getting an 86% on my brief. I just found this book to be really insightful and user friendly.

Super helpful with trial level & appellate briefs

I ordered this book through interlibrary loan at my law school (Wisconsin) to help with both my LRW class's trial level brief and my moot court try-out appellate brief. I ended up just buying it because it is so helpful and well written. It has great ideas about how to structure arguments, spin the question presented and the facts your way, and how to interweave policy throughout a brief. Much prefered to the Linda Edwards text my school made us buy.
