Professor Nancy Leong (University of Denver) has a good video on the rudiments of writing a law school paper or law review article..
I'll add here a few things:
* write about something YOU care about, not what you think the Professor cares about
* have an objective: what you think the law should be
* learn what the law is
* explain why you are right
* You should be able to state your point in four concise sentences in your opening paragraph.
* Your conclusion restates your opening paragrpah - and assesses the prospect for success.
* You should be able to state your point in four concise sentences in your opening paragraph
I made a short video outlining a ten-step process for writing a law school seminar paper or law review note and uploaded it to YouTube! It's the first in a series about academic writing for law students and new authors. Please feel free to share! 1/https://t.co/gnNfXLLfHO
