SUMMARY:SLL LEGAL WRITING SEMINAR: WITH SOME NOT-SO-TYPICAL TOPICS
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] \nCPCS approved 2.5 CLE hours for the SORB and SDP Hearings\, Post-Conviction\, Adult Criminal Trial\, CAFL\, YAD\, YAD Appeals\, and Mental Health panels.\nKenneth Bresler\, Administrative Magistrate\, Division of Administrative Law Appeals (DALA) \nDate & Time: Wednesday\, March 13\, 2024 from 3:00 p.m. to 5:30 p.m.\nProgram Fee: $65 \n  \n•          You probably know to use the active voice in your writing. But how do you spot the passive voice? When is OK to use the passive voice? \n•          Use one idea per sentence – generally\, that is. \n•          Avoid nominalizations (“have knowledge of\,” “have need of\,” “make use of”). \n•          Ditch the synonyms. Pick one word and stick with it. \n•          Avoid common redundancies (“prior planning\,” “future predictions”). \n•          Use “however” properly.  (Many educated people misuse it.) \n•          Is it “disinterested” or “uninterested”? \n•          Is it “flaunt” or “flout”? (Some courts get it wrong.) \n•          Is it “just deserts” or “just desserts”? (You won’t get this wrong ever.) \n•          Why there ain’t no such thing as “12:00 a.m.” \n•          Avoid the ambiguity of “12:00 midnight.” \nAn experienced lawyer\, writer\, editor\, and writing coach\, Kenneth Bresler has successfully presented these topics to long-practicing lawyers and law students alike. Consider sending your interns and summer associates as part of your summer program. This 2.5 hour webinar includes some easy hands-on\, correct-your-own writing exercises. \nOnline registration is encouraged.
