Module 5
Writing clearly in English: emails, letters and the mistakes learners make
Most of a lawyer’s English, in practice, is written: emails, letters, notes of advice. Writing is also where non-native speakers can do the best work, because you have time to think, check and revise. This module gives you a structure for a legal email, the polite phrases that make requests and refusals work, and a short list of the mistakes that appear again and again in the writing of learners.
