Writing Consultants for Law Firms
Thanks to the Legal Writing Prof Blog for mentioning this article about how law firms are using legal writing instructors to support and train their lawyers.
Let’s see, if lawyers need help with the sort of writing they studied in law school and do every day, then they could well need help with the sort of writing they never studied and do on occasion, and that’s promotional writing: client alerts, magazine articles, blog posts, etc.
And if you don’t think client alerts and magazine articles and blog posts are promotional, then consider this: why do you suppose lawyers take the time to write such things?
