About

Legal writing is hard. Learning about it shouldn't be.



In Dear 1L, a collection of nurturing letters, tactical how-to's, and advanced legal-writing tips, legal-writing coach Amanda Haverstick answers all the questions you didn't know you need to know.



How do you avoid a dicta trap when writing the fall memo? What's the winning formula for an IRAC essay? A legal brief? A lawyer's resume? And what's the "TICTAC comma," anyway? Get the cheat codes on these topics and more that still trip up 1Ls every year.



Dear 1L gives you a witty, insightful preview of what to expect during 1L. What's more, the writing tips you'll learn come from decades of BigLaw-litigation experience, and they've been "blessed" by thousands of lawyers and law students online. This book is a trusted supplement you'll refer to throughout law school and beyond.
