Legal Writing Nerd - Tips for Exceptional Writing Skills
Legal writing is difficult for some lawyers to navigate. Is there a shift away from archaic flourishes to plain language, or does it still have its place? In this episode of the State Bar of Texas Podcast, host Rocky Dhir talks to Wayne Schiess, author and legal writing professor. They discuss his most recent book, “Legal Writing Nerd: Be One,” and give tips on what lawyers can incorporate to better their writing skills.
Wayne Schiess is a senior lecturer at the University of Texas School of Law and author of five books on practical legal writing skills.

I went to law school in Kansas in the 70's. We had a 1 hour credit on legal writing taught by the law librarian. It was mostly about citations (blue book) use. Of course, we wrote essays; we wrote papers. We got some writing feedback in that way.
