Writing for clients

Your clients want business writing that’s readable. They don’t like legal essays, they loathe feeling so frustrated that have to stop reading, and they certainly don’t want to spend money getting you to translate your own work. Our courses offer the planning, writing and style techniques for high quality professional communications that they will read and understand with ease.

Writing for other lawyers

Writing for other lawyers is a daunting task. Whether it’s a colleague or your boss, or perhaps an opponent, you know your writing has to be accurate, robust and persuasive. Our courses will help with the right techniques and the opportunity to practise them and get expert feedback. We cover a wide range of options from attendance notes and minutes of meetings to formal responses and procedural letters.

Writing for marketing, business development and tenders

Shake up your lawyerly writing techniques and learn how to turn dull legal material into published articles and blogs with snappy headlines and engaging content. Learn how to write winning bids and tender documents that are concise, persuasive and focused on what the target client wants.

Grammar and punctuation refreshers

Our refresher course on grammar and punctuation are lively and full of fun and designed to build people’s confidence and ability to write clear and accurate sentences without errors.

Managing Other People’s Writing

Managing Other People’s Writing will help you build your team’s skills with time-saving techniques for explaining expectations, reducing revisions, and making sure they do the work (not you).
