The DC Bar Association this month will again present a popular CLE seminar titled Effective Writing for Lawyers Workshop.
The program will take place on Tuesday, August 22 from 9:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. at the DC Bar Conference Center, 1250 H Street, NW, Washington, DC.
This course for new or seasoned attorneys teaches participants how to recognize and correct common writing problems. Through a series of interactive exercises, participants will learn how to fix those problems and make dull and bureaucratic language clear and concise.
Participants also will learn how to think about the writing process, how to untangle sentences, and how to edit. The course also will provide 10 tips for turning ordinary writing into crisp, sharp and convincing prose.
The class is limited to 20 registrants.
Course instructors will be Jody Beck and Kathleen Sylvester of Writewell.
