It offers both a large-scale overview of the drafting process and a small-scale discussion of the mechanics of legal documents at the sentence, word, and punctuation level.

This text provides a comprehensive and flexible teaching instrument for any course in legal drafting. It contains text, examples, and exercises that deal with both contract and statutory drafting-making the text suitable for a general drafting course, or one that focuses on either of the two more specialized forms of a drafted document.

They also contain further drafting exercises that involve drafting or revising either specific provisions or entire contracts and statutes.

Legal Drafting, Process, Techniques, and Exercises (Coursebook)

This book is a practical, brief, to-the-point text covering the fundamental working parts of a contract and how one should be prepared. It provides an overview of the issues and processes involved in drafting contracts and transactional documents. It enables students to analyze the basic structure of contracts and other deal documents and develop the macro and micro techniques used to efficiently create those documents with precision and clarity. It provides the principles necessary for an understanding of the common structures of transactional documents and their provisions that can then be applied to specific transactions. Beyond structural drafting, this book also covers some of the substantive laws that may affect contracts. This book provides a standard structure that is ideal for a two- to three-credit-hour course taught by full-time or adjunct faculty.

The Elements of Contract Drafting with Questions and Clauses for Consideration (American Casebook Series)

This book is designed for an introductory period class for the 1L year or as an introduction to a course in civil procedure. A Civil Matter chronicles Neely v. Fox of Oak Ridge and Benjamin Curd, a personal injury/negligence action in a federal district court resulting from a rear-end automobile collision. The book uses the lawsuit to introduce students to the civil litigation process, covering the basics of civil procedure from jurisdiction through pleading, discovery, motion practice, and trial. Importantly, there are hyperlinks throughout the book to rules of procedure, case law, and the pleadings and documents that make up the court docket. So, for example, when reading about the parties initiating the lawsuit, the reader can access, by hyperlink, the rules involved as well as the actual complaint that was filed in the action. The chapters contain questions for students to answer by reviewing the linked documents, causing them to conduct a review of the entire docket sheet and its contents as well as relevant case law, statutes, and rules. This process should enhance students’ understanding of the context and content of a civil lawsuit governed by the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure.

A Transactional Matter: A Guide to Business Lawyering (Coursebook)

Krumm, Brian

Completely reworked and updated, the third edition of Business Reorganizations is uniquely designed to make learning the Chapter 11 process an engaging, challenging and fun experience. The book is organized into ten chapters, each concentrating on a different phase of the attempt to rescue the fictional, financially beleaguered Amphydynamics Corporation and its related companies. 
This storyline runs the length of the book, and gradually unfolds in many problems and notes within each chapter. The problems direct reading of the opinions and other materials by placing issues in context. They help students to understand the commercial transactions and business environment that form the backdrop against which the Chapter 11 drama is played out. They introduce an ensemble of characters possessing conflicting and shifting loyalties, interests, and attitudes, and who reveal the human dimension of the Chapter 11 process. The problems also focus attention, heighten interest, and bare some ethical dilemmas by inviting students to role-play - to think like clients as well as lawyers - and to negotiate, advise, and strategize. 
Business Reorganizations provides professors with the flexibility to pick and choose materials they feel deserve emphasis in their individual courses. Purposely comprehensive and encyclopedic, this book is designed both as a tool for law school and as a resource for practice. Extensive textual notes following the cases provide the reader additional explanation and expansion of the themes expressed in the cases, are comprehensive enough to serve as mini-treatise; so giving the book an extended shelf life.
