LAW-5010 LEGAL RESEARCH AND WRITING 1
Legal Research and Writing 1·("LRW 1") is the first of two required semesters of research and writing instruction. The primary focus of the course will be the written expression of legal analysis and its secondary focus will be legal research. The course will teach students how to draft objective legal memoranda by presenting students with facts from which they must develop rational outcomes based on researching statutes and case law, and to reduce those outcomes to writing to communicate with other lawyers and clients. In addition to the written assignments, each student will also make a short oral report to the Professor.
