Dersin Amaç ve İçeriği

Course Objectives: The lawyer’s job is to persuade, whether: (i) judges or arbitrators, when trying to convince them your client should win a piece of litigation; or (ii) a client, when analyzing the merits of a dispute prior to pursuit of its resolution in a court or arbitration forum; or (iii) a counter-party, when negotiating the terms of a contract. The course will consist of variety of weekly exercises, exercises which will introduce the students to the art of persuasive writing, including an introduction to legal research and the proper use of legal authorities. Homework will be required, which should take an estimated one hour/week for students whose English is advanced and two hours/week for students whose English is less so.
Course Content: Lectures, homework (including reading – e.g. case law – and writing exercises), in-class writing exercises, and in-class discussion of homework.
