Description
This presentation will discuss connecting law school to the practice of law with a course focused on civil litigation from the beginning of a dispute through dispositive motion practice. Students improve their persuasive legal writing through drafting common pre-trial legal documents. By design, students forge connections between persuasive legal writing, civil procedure, statutory provisions, and common law precedent—connecting the skills used in LRW and the knowledge gained in other courses to the practice of law.
