[.ca] The Lawyer's Guide to Writing Well (ISBN 0520234731)

More than good writing advice.:
Are lawyers professional writers? Could a law office benefit by adopting some methods of a book publisher or newspaper office? Yes and yes, according to the authors of this excellent book. The writing advice is superb, from commas to sentence length and from transitions to editing methods. But the best parts of the book are the suggestions for managing a law office so that it will produce consistent, top-notch written work. The authors recommend using proofreaders, training junior lawyers in editing, and employing someone in the position of copy editor. All great advice that would improve legal writing.
