Legal Research & Writing for Paralegals by Neal Bevans,Pamela Tepper Pdf

Legal Research and Writing for Paralegals takes students on a step-by-step journey through the intricacies of researching legal issues and creating legal documents. The focus is on critical areas paralegals deal with daily: what law is and how to find it, what role the Internet plays in legal research, how to incorporate legal research into writing, and how to create an array of legal documents.

The many practical assignments throughout and at the end of each chapter allow students to put into practice what they are learning about research and writing.
