Law is argued through language. Yet traditional legal drafting is plagued by bloated legalese, tangled sentences, and passive voice that confuses clients and frustrates judges. This foundational course delivers an intensive masterclass in plain English legal writing, transforming dense research into clear, surgical, and compelling prose. Drawing on the techniques of legal writing authority Bryan Garner and judicial writing conventions, you will master sentence ergonomics, syllogistic issue framing (Questions Presented in under 75 words), and the CRuPAC paradigm. Eliminate archaic jargon, structure paragraphs for maximum cognitive absorption, and develop the rhetorical discipline that wins motions and briefs.
