Review

“I have personally reviewed several other legal writing texts and by far the best on the market is the one written by Putman. It really is the only text I would use in my course. The text by Putman is superior in terms of content, approach and readability.”

“This textbook is very well written and follows a logical, how-to format. I am a big fan of Mr. Putman’s publications and feel they are the absolute best textbooks when it comes to educating paralegals.”
