This is the most popular CLE seminar of all time. More than 195,000 lawyers, judges, law clerks, and paralegals have benefited from it over the last 25 years. You’ll learn the keys for professional writing and no-nonsense techniques to make your letters, memos, and briefs more powerful.

You’ll also learn what doesn’t work and why—know-how gathered from Garner’s unique experience in training lawyers at the country’s top law firms, state and national courts, government agencies, and Fortune 500 companies. He’ll teach you how to shake those bad habits that readers — especially judges — so detest.

Praise for Bryan Garner’s TrainingTed Olson, former Solicitor General of the United States and a partner at Gibson, Dunn & Crutcher, says:

“ Bryan Garner’s seminars are the most valuable things I know of to help a lawyer communicate effectively. Lawyers who strive to be effective never stop learning. I’d go again and again and again.”

Fall Seminar

Bryan Garner provides the keys for making the most of your writing aptitude—in letters, memos, briefs, and more. The seminar covers five essential skills for persuasive writing: • framing issues that grab the reader; • cutting wordiness that wastes the reader’s time; •using transitions deftly to make your argument flow; •quoting authority more effectively; and •handling your writing projects more efficiently.

Garner provides dozens of techniques that can make an enormous difference. Most important, he shows what doesn’t work and why—and teaches participants how to shake the bad habits that judges despise.
