TESTIMONIALS
“Going back to school at 50 was terrifying. Professor Jones was one of my many law classes. She made my first law class comfortable. Professor Jones was very supportive, encouraging, and very knowledgeable. The impact that she has made on me and my career goals has been a blessing. She helped me to go from a marginal writer to a confident and effective legal writer. Currently, I work at a law firm as a Legal Assistant/Paralegal.”
Ms. Jones’s determined efforts to teach us the technicalities of legal writing is a skill set I use every single day as a Paralegal Supervisor in an Insurance Defense law firm. For example, I was drafting a Brief using the IRAC method and when I initiated my analysis of the issues in the case, I applied the elements of Negligence Per Se to each fact and applicability of case law to each issue in order to procure accurate analysis. If it were not for Ms. Jones’s priceless style of teaching and on the field training, I would not have achieved success in this area.”
“I have learned legal writing techniques from Ms. Jones that I use today in my career as a legal secretary in a global law firm. Over the course of several classes together, Ms. Jones has successfully taught me strong legal writing methods in a variety of legal instruments, such as memoranda, briefs, case studies, pleadings and contracts. Ms. Jones does not always teach according to a set curriculum, which is particularly helpful when she allows for debate and discussion between the students on a legal issue. This helped me to not only be diligent in legal writing, but also to be able to explain my analysis in public speaking. I highly recommend the specialized teaching techniques of Ms. Lucinda Jones and know that she will be an asset to those who want to learn strong legal writing skills.
“Ms. Jones helped me with creating concise legal documents. She taught me to derive crucial facts from a case and the essential elements from the rules to establish succinct legal writing samples. My writing achievements led me to achieve academic and professional success, thanks to Professor Jones’s efforts and determination to educate me about writing concise and compelling papers. In addition to guiding my academic path, Professor Jones prompted me to bring my ardent passion for pursuing a Juris Doctorate to life.
“I’ve had the privilege of taking a legal writing class with Ms. Lucinda Jones during my undergraduate studies. As a result of her passion, knowledge, and dedication to ensuring her students learn what it takes to draft legal documents, the legal writing skills I’ve obtained since being in her class earned me the opportunity to gain a position at a prestigious law firm with several office locations nationwide all before graduating with my undergraduate degree! I highly recommend Ms. Jones to anyone looking to sharpen their writing skills, or simply learn how to draft legal documents
