OLDFall 2022 Law School Course Evaluations

In what way(s) did this course benefit your professional or intellectual development? legal writing skills I am truly glad I have now I feel more equipped going forward both in law school, my summer job, and my future as a lawyer with the writing and analytical skills that I worked on in this class this semester. I realize there are more than just one way to produce an effective document, and I will feel less constrained when writing memos in the future. This course benefitted my intellectual development by teaching me how to better structure a legal argument and teaching me that there isn ' t necessarily one "right" way to put together a brief/ memo. I learned how to write an argument effectively. What was taught is so hard to put in words because you just have to experience it to see how effective it was. This course provided me with a better outlook on legal writing. LPS made it seem like legal writing is very structured when it is not. This course allowed me to input my voice into legal writing. This class was a great extension of what I learned in LPS. I feel as though my legal writing has significantly improved. I also have been able to gain a good writing sample from this class, which I have used to apply for spring and fall internships
