(...) a commendable aim of providing an accessible text covering a wide range of written assessments. The style is accessible in that it relatively informal and avoids lengthy, complex sentences.' - Kathy Quinlan, Deputy Head, Anglia Law School 'The material is set out systematically and the chapters appear to be balanced (..) comes across as a comprehensive study guide rather than a detailed textbook on writing law assignments (...)The book is correctly pitched at the first year law undergraduate student and would also be helpful for all years of undergraduate law degrees. It would also be useful for the Common Professional Examination Student, whose understanding of writing essays, reports etc is generally reasonable well developed but these type of students needs to polish and perfect their legal writing.' - Lucy Jones,
