Case Analysis and Fundamentals of Legal Writing,
This review is from: Case Analysis and Fundamentals of Legal Writing (Hardcover)
This book was well worth the money. It provides a wealth of information in clear and concise verbiage. This is a must for anyone interested or working in legal processes. I highly recommend this book.

This review is from: Case Analysis and Fundamentals of Legal Writing (Hardcover)
I started as a litigation paralegal in 1972 and retired in 2004 after 32 years of service and helping to win over 2 billion (yes it is a b) in court judgments. I can tell you without doubt that this is one of the best if not the best book on the market and in history when it comes to explaining how to understand court decisions and legal opinions. A paralegal that reads and studies this book will know more about the meaning of court opinions than 99% of all lawyers. This book is easily worth $15,000 and I am often shocked to see it offered for sale for less than $1,000. If you plan to be a litigation paralegal, buy it today. Of course if you plan to be just an ordinary paralegal (doing bankruptcies, wills, divorces, etc) you do not need this book.

The Basis Of A Good Legal Argument,
This review is from: Case Analysis and Fundamentals of Legal Writing (Hardcover)
This book along with patience and a good dictionary will guide you in the methodology necessary to navigate your way through, the most complex of legal opinions. As far as the writing goes there are many books on legal writing and most do a good job of teaching you that, what is missing however is how to teach you to gain a clear understanding of what you are writing about, this book stresses on that it is circular, it brings you back to the fundamentals of what makes a good legal argument.
