Legal Writing: A Complete Guide to a Career In Law and Legal Research In New Zealand

Legal Writing: A Complete Guide for a Career in Law is the successor to the legal writing part of Legal Research and Writing in New Zealand. This new, comprehensive volume is an essential companion for those seeking a career in law. The easy to follow content not only addresses and demonstrates legal writing for the law student and law practitioner but also places this in a context of progression from entering university as a law student, undertaking professional legal training, seeking employment and working as a lawyer.

Legal Research in New Zealand focusses on the elements and sources of New Zealand law with emphasis on developing an efficient research methodology, and the skills for comparative assessment of alternative legal resources. There is also guidance to carrying out legal research involving other (especially related) jurisdictions.

Written for undergraduate students of law, law clerks, novice law librarians, librarians in public libraries which host Depository Collections, and self-litigants, Legal Research in New Zealand explores the various legal sources, how to find them and how to go about best using them in a practical and user friendly style.
