Sommario/riassunto |

"Legal Writing guides students comprehensively through this vital legal skill and addresses a range of assessment methods, from exam questions to final essays and problem answers. It considers how to deconstruct essay and problem questions and how to conduct and apply legal research to answer set questions. Webley explains how to reference others' work clearly and correctly, making this book a useful tool for students concerned about issues of plagiarism.

Legal Writing is particularly useful for undergraduate students, especially at the beginning of degree studies, and to GDL and CPE students too.
