Overview

Drafting is one of the most specialist and refined skills that must be mastered by those training for the Bar. A barrister must not only be able to draft with absolute clarity and precision, but also use drafting skills effectively for persuasive and tactical purposes. This manual is an excellent teaching resource which will be of real practical use to all readers. The emphasis is on pleadings, both because of their importance in civil litigation, and because they provide the best foundation for the learning process. However many other types of contentious drafting of relevance to general practice are also covered. Each chapter contains numerous examples, and every example is followed by a detailed commentary explaining the draft. There is a series of exercises throughout the manual, which will enable practitioners and students to practise and develop their skills, and to discover further techniques not covered by the examples. These exercises are supported by chapters on the skill of drafting and the use of plain English.
