Want to learn the best ways to persuade skeptical Judges? Attend Persuasive Legal Writing, a one-hour seminar by Daniel U. Smith, a Certified Appellate Specialist and one of California’s leading appellate lawyers.
For over 30 years Mr. Smith has learned from judges what they like (and don’t like) in lawyers’ writing. Mr. Smith will present over 70 writing tips for capturing the judge’s attention from the beginning to the end of your motion or brief.
Daniel U. Smith was an editor of the California Law Review and a clerk for a Federal District Judge. During his 35 years of exclusively appellate practice, he appeared in the California Supreme Court 19 times. His victories on appeal set precedents regarding punitive damages, tobacco and asbestos liability, election law, and employment. Mr. Smith consults on briefs and appellate strategy.
