Legal Writing

About this book

Legal Writing guides students comprehensively through this vital legal skill and addresses a range of assessment methods from exam questions to final essays and problem answers. It considers how to deconstruct essay and problem questions and how to conduct and apply legal research to answer set questions.

Lisa Webley explains how to reference others' work clearly and correctly, making this book a useful tool for students concerned about issues of plagiarism. Legal Writing also focuses on how to develop critical thinking and communicate legal arguments, with both good and bad examples of written work considered and discussed in the text.

Legal Writing is particularly useful for undergraduate students, especially at the beginning of degree studies, as well as for those preparing for the SQE exams. This fully revised fifth edition includes:

  • Guidance on how to avoid plagiarism, including examples of the best and worst practices
  • Worked examples throughout the text, including how to decipher essay questions in exams and coursework
  • An expanded set of accompanying digital learning resources with increased guidance for revision to allow students to test their progress and further engage with the topics in the book.

Clearly written and easy to use, Legal Writing enables students to fully engage with essay and exam writing as a vital foundation to their undergraduate degree.
