Mastering Legal Writing and Research

About Course

If you want to demonstrate your skills and expertise in a subject area there is no better proof than getting a publication in your name. In this course we cover all the basic issues faced by students when they wish to get published. Students often ask: What it means to write a legal paper? How do I find a good topic? How long should it be? How should I organise it? How should I edit my article? What should I include in my introduction? When should I quote and when not? How can I get more publications? These are all valid and vital questions when it comes to legal writing. These are questions that a law student should be concerned about. Legal writing is an essential skill that defines your legal career. But legal writing in law school rarely gets the attention that it deserves.

Through this seminal course, we seek to change that. In this course, through personalised feedback on written work on the topic of your choice, we will guide you through the several stages of legal writing. That is right! Get your topic or paper that you are working on or want to work on and we will help you improve, guiding you step-by-step. If you don't have a topic yet, we will help you arrive at one.

At the end of the course, you would also have the opportunity to get your article published in prestigious EBC journals. A publication with EBC is itself no mean feat.

The course is taught by experienced editors and writers who have themselves gone through the rigorous process of writing, feedback, editing and rewriting. Legal writing can’t be learnt alone, everyone needs someone to give feedback and guide them. So join the masters who are happy to share their secrets and years of experience. Let us make you into a legal writing ninja!
