Synopsis

Law school teaching is heavily focused on litigation. This is true for both doctrinal and skills courses. While an increased emphasis on contract drafting skills has occurred, the conceptualization of lawyerly work remains dichotomous―litigation v. transaction―rather than adopting a broader conception that recognizes that successful lawyers employ a wide array of skills regardless of their practice area. This text contextualizes drafting skills in a variety of practical settings. By using a framework of alternative drafting contexts, readers are free to examine skills as they might approach them in their area of practice. This emphasizes the transferability of these skills across practice types.

These skills will be important for students as they approach clinics and externships, the NextGen Bar exam, and their future practice as attorneys. This text may be a helpful supplement for students in a clinical setting, but it can also serve as a primary text for drafting across practice areas.
