Rating: Summary: More than good writing advice. Review: Are lawyers professional writers? Could a law office benefit by adopting some methods of a book publisher or newspaper office?Yes and yes, according to the authors of this excellent book. The writing advice is superb, from commas to sentence length and from transitions to editing methods. But the best parts of the book are the suggestions for managing a law office so that it will produce consistent, top-notch written work. The authors recommend using proofreaders, training junior lawyers in editing, and employing someone in the position of copy editor. All great advice that would improve legal writing.
Rating: Summary: Helpful tool for all lawyers and law students Review: Goldstein and Lieberman have authored a book every law professional and law student should consult. The glossary alone has enough helpful hints to improve one's writing.
Rating: Summary: my favorite book of all times Review: i first purchased this "intriguing" book when living in chicago where i worked as "foreign patent specialist" and "senior tech writer/editor". When we moved to Las Vegas, after my retirement, I panicked when I realized that I've lost this book. Just open any page and savor the words in this book. Bravo to the authors. I wish I could shake their hands for a well-written and intriguing book.
