3.0 out of 5 stars Good basics, but definitely outdated, June 13, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Practical Legal Writing for Legal Assistants (Paperback)
This book was required for my Legal Research 2 college class. It was a fairly high price (to me) given how old it is!

It was handy that one of the authors is from Oklahoma (which is where I go to college), so she provides a lot of things that are relevant to my state. However, because it was written/published in 1990-something, several of the things are irrelevant. It also barely covers the internet research, which is obviously the main way to research these days!

This is a good book for the basics, but it is not useful for many of the current techniques used by paralegals and lawyers.
