We are joined this week in the Lounge by Professor Kamina Pinder, a Professor of Practice at Emory University School of Law. Kamina’s new book, The 1L Guide to Legal Writing, was created with the law student in mind. Kamina includes samples of legal writing throughout with ways to assess those samples and margin notes. Her new book incorporates feedback from students and professors alike to create an accessible way to learn legal writing in the context of both predictive and persuasive writing. Our conversation considers the structure and coverage of Kamina's new book while also focusing on important legal writing tips (like what TO do and what NOT to do). This conversation is essential for any law student who will be setting out on their law school journey or for students currently tackling their 1L legal writing class.
You can grab your own copy of The 1L Guide to Legal Writing here.
