Product Description:
In their professional lives courtroom lawyers must do these two things well: speak persuasively and write persuasively. In this noteworthy book, two of the most noted legal writers of our day Justice Antonin Scalia and Bryan A. Garner systematically present every important idea about judicial persuasion in a fresh, entertaining way. Making Your Case: The Art of Persuading Judges is a guide for novice and experienced litigators alike. It covers the essentials of sound legal reasoning, including how to develop the syllogism that underlies any argument. From there the authors explain the art of brief-writing, especially what to include and what to omit, so that you can induce the judge to focus closely on your arguments. Finally, they show what it takes to succeed in oral argument. The opinions of Justice Scalia are legendary for their sharp insights, biting wit, and memorable phrasing. The writings of Bryan A. Garner, editor in chief of Black s Law Dictionary®, are respected inside and outside legal circles for their practical guidance on the art of writing and advocacy. Together the Scalia-Garner team has produced a fresh, innovative approach to a timeless topic.

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - A glimpse of litigation lingo
Bought this book for my son who is an attorney. I admire Judge Scalia and hopefully my son will find this book informative.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Ah Scalia
Justice Scalia is one of the most controversial justices of our time, and is not shy about sharing his views, whether you like it or not. I don't agree with him on most of his points, but I do enjoy his writings and speeches. He spends time thinking about what he believes in and why, long before he speaks. So even if you disagree with him, his reasoning is clear, well thought out, and thought provoking.

Having said that this book is flavored by Scalia's personality, but what he ... Read More



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Textbook
This book is written for the first year law student and not an average lay reader. Reads like a textbook.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - The Bible of Brief Writing
I'll be brief (no pun intended). If you are a lawyer or law student who wants to write better and more persuasive briefs - buy or borrow this book! I've completely changed my legal writing style after reading Judge Scalia and Garner's book.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Nothing New for Practitioners
If you are a practitioner seeking insightful wisdom from a Supreme Court Justice to improve your advocacy skills, this book is not for you. Those who have taken a basic legal writing and/or moot court course will not find any new information here. Essentially, the authors have compiled highlights from a legal writing textbook, added a few quotes from famous judges and a few examples from their own experience, and billed this as a book of wisdom. It appears that most of the book was written by co ... Read More
