Few things are more daunting than a blank page. In this program, experienced appellate advocates Rex Heinke and Susan Yorke will offer practical tips to help take you from that blank page to an effective brief. They will offer insights on the writing process, including advice about how to create a first draft and revise it once you do. They will also break down the elements of an appellate brief, offering strategies to leverage each component to your client’s advantage. And they will provide concrete methods for increasing the clarity and persuasiveness of your writing – from overall organization, to paragraph structure, to word choice. Finally, they will identify common pitfalls and explain how to avoid them.
