Knowing the law is essential—but so is being able to communicate effectively about it. That can be challenging. That can be stressful. But Rick Horowitz and the NSBA are here to help. “More Effective Writing...” will help you close the gap between what you know, and how well you’re able to share your knowledge and judgment with a variety of readers, across an assortment of documents, to achieve a range of goals.
This innovative and interactive workshop will explore the fundamentals, and the critical details, of creating clear, well-organized, persuasive legal documents. Examine good (and not-so-good) writing to see what worked, what didn’t, and why. Re-examine some of the assumptions and habits that often lead lawyers down less-than-productive writing paths.
Briefs, memos, client letters, even daily correspondence—they'll all benefit from a deeper understanding of what goes into successful legal writing. Among the topics we’re likely to discuss: Rick Horowitz, Prime Prose, LLC Rick Horowitz is founder and Wordsmith in Chief of Prime Prose, LLC, leading highly popular—and highly practical—legal-writing workshops coast to coast. A graduate of Brandeis University and NYU School of Law and a former lawyer himself, he's worked with state and local bar associations, government agencies, and a variety of corporations, nonprofits and law firms.
