FAIR 322K: Intro to Legal Analysis, Research and Writing

Fairhaven · 5 credits · Fairhaven College

Intro to Legal Analysis, Research & Writing introduces students to legal reasoning, analysis, sources of law, legal research tools and methodologies, and effective oral and written communication. Students work independently and in small teams to complete a variety of legal analysis, research, and writing exercises, including a client letter, legal memo, and oral advocacy project. Students develop the ability to locate, analyze, and persuasively use primary and secondary legal sources to solve legal problems and advocate for legal solutions. Much of the work in this course is similar to the work undertaken in law firms, courts, government agencies, and advocacy organizations.
