This workshop offers an intensive treatment of style – the most common problem in legal writing. Lawyers (and clients) know poor style when they see it. The problem is how to fix it. Participants will learn the science behind transforming their style from “legalese” to plain English in two steps: (1) cut words/syllables and (2) simplify sentence structures. Price: Individual €300 , Group €750 -
The key to good writing is good editing. Yet few lawyers give themselves enough time to edit well. Even fewer use a system when they edit. In this workshop, participants will learn (1) how to leave more time for the edit and (2) a four-step approach for editing longer documents, each step bringing greater refinement.
