Persuasive Brief Writing

Series Overview:

In many courts, especially many federal district courts, pre-trial litigation occurs almost entirely “on the papers,” with few, if any, oral arguments or courtroom presentations. If litigators want to achieve their client’s goals – whether it be for a claim to survive or be dismissed, discovery to be permitted or denied, or evidence to be admitted or barred – they must use their written submissions to persuade the court.

Join a panel of seasoned litigators, two of whom are former legal writing instructors to discuss the structure, substance and style of effective brief-writing. This series will help new and more experienced litigators sharpen a set of crucial skills that can, and should, continue developing throughout their careers.
