"This new title aims to provide law students the skills they need from the minute they reach law school right through to admission to the Bar (in multiple jurisdictions). It will help students write essays, study for exams, and how to prepare for the legal profession. The book also goes further in helping a young graduate to navigate through their first few years in the profession by giving advice on writing legal opinions and legal memorandums"--Publisher information.
