Enrollment is limited to JD Students.
This course explores various ways that lawyers use their writing skills to create legal change beyond just advocating for their client's goals. It will explore theories about when legal change occurs and various roles lawyers can play in creating change. It will also cover options for creating legal change, such as clarifying the law for non-lawyers, use of amicus briefs to bring additional voices into litigation, advocacy for regulatory changes through rulemaking, and use of ballot measures to create direct change. Assignments will include both revising existing sources and writing documents for change.

Enrollment is limited to JD Students.
This course provides students with the opportunity to learn the principles of effective contract drafting. Emphasis will be placed on drafting agreements that effectuate clients’ needs and anticipate potential legal problems. Students will be required to draft a series of written contracts, and may also be required to perform research relating to the drafting of those contracts. This course will also introduce students to the role of the transactional lawyer, contract interpretation, and to the process of revising contracts drafted by counsel for the other party.
This course proceeds in three parts. First, we will examine the American philosophical traditions that argue for protecting certain public lands from further human development. Second, we will study the major federal “wilderness protection” statutes: the 1908 Antiquities Act, the 1916 National Park Service Organic Act, and the 1964 Wilderness Act. An important case study here will involve the ongoing litigation involving the designation (and reduction in area) of the Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument in Southern Utah. Finally, we will examine the critiques and limitations of the American wilderness tradition and proposals to reorient wilderness protection to a focus on biological diversity.
This course will build on the skills developed in your
first year of legal writing. It will examine the
writing process from the beginning of the litigation
process through post-trial matters. Students will be
required to draft documents such as office memoranda,
client letters, pleadings, discovery materials, motion
briefs, and settlement agreements. This course is
asynchronous.
Class will consist of each student meeting individually on Zoom with the professor for a half-hour conference. Conferences take place at the same time every day being scheduled between 9am and noon Monday through Friday. A handful of mandatory group sessions will be held during that same time period.
This five-credit course is designed to provide intensive training in legal research and writing. Students are expected to have a solid foundation in basic legal research and writing, and this course should further those skills. By the end of the course, students are expected to have a working knowledge of the major research sources: reporters, digests, annotated statutes, citators, and secondary authorities. Students are expected to master two basic writing formats: the office memo and the client letter. Significant time will also be spent writing motions, and students will be exposed to additional documents types as well. Students will be required to rewrite all assignments and will complete a total of approximately thirty assignments during the course. Students will receive extensive individualized feedback on each assignment, and all projects, including both original assignments and rewrites, will be graded. Students are expected to spend an average of eight to ten hours per day on class assignments.
***NOTE: Once enrolled, students are not permitted to withdraw from the course without permission from the instructor. Withdrawal without approval will result in a failing grade for the course.
Class is limited to ASU JD degree candidates. Students are prohibited from working or taking any other courses during the session they are enrolled in Intensive Legal Research and Writing.
This course examines all aspects of the negotiation process. Students will learn the principles and skills associated with both competitive and interest-based negotiation by participating in a series of simulation exercises inside and outside of class. The simulations involve negotiations in a wide variety of actions and will require substantial out-of-class preparation. The reading materials for the course include both theoretical literature and practice focused articles, and the class culminates in an extensive out-of-class negotiation simulation.
The class is limited to JD Candidates only.
This is an advanced writing seminar that will introduce students to types of legal documents that are not covered in the first-year curriculum. Approximately half the course emphasizes a transactional practice and half the course emphasizes a litigation practice. Assignments may include demand letters, advice letters, contracts, pleadings, and statutes. Classes will consist of a combination of lecture and interactive exercises. Students will receive individualized feedback on all assignments.
This course describes how the laws governing business organizations impact the work of all lawyers. A basic understanding of the organization and management of business enterprises, and the law of agency, partnership, limited liability companies, corporations, and securities, is routinely needed across a diverse range of legal specializations.
Business enterprises can be organized in various ways to achieve different goals. It is fundamental to understand all the forms into which business enterprises are organized, and the pros and cons of each form. Lawyers are often called upon by business people to help them select the form of business through which they can most effectively achieve their business goals. Accordingly, we study sole proprietorships, partnerships, corporations, and the increasingly popular new form of enterprise called the limited liability company (“LLC”). Changing perspective, we study how lawyers practicing in different fields encounter and interact with business organizations whether through litigation, transactions, taxation, or public policy.

Evidence covers the basic rules that govern the admissibility of evidence in civil and criminal trial proceedings. The primary focus is on how the Federal Rules of Evidence operate in practice, with some attention to areas in which the Arizona Rules of Evidence differ from the Federal Rules. The course is primarily taught by the problem method, with a focus on the practical application of the rules in a trial setting. This is a complex and difficult subject, but one that most practicing lawyers -- including non-litigators -- need to know; and it would be an especially tough subject to try to learn from scratch from a bar review course. Students should make every effort to take Evidence before taking Trial Advocacy or clinical courses.
The class is limited to JD Candidates only.

Course Description:
Hours Per Credit:
Independent study projects must meet the quantum of work requirements expected from students enrolled in a regular course taken for the same number of credits. The strong presumption is that an independent study project will be for only 1 credit. Only in rare or unusual circumstances will permission be granted for an independent study project to qualify for more than 1 credit. Students seeking more than 1 credit bear the burden of demonstrating in their proposal that their project warrants more than 1 credit. If a student has signed up for a 1- credit project and later believes that the quality and quantum of work warrant a second credit, the student must overcome the strong presumption that only 1
credit should be awarded and must obtain consent from both the supervising faculty member and the dean’s designee. For paper projects, simply meeting the
stated minimum word requirement for a 2-credit paper alone is not sufficient to qualify for an additional credit.
The typical independent study project results in a single, fully-developed paper. Faculty members may set a minimum length for this paper based on the complexity of the subject, the existing volume of literature on the topic, the number of redrafts required to complete the assignment, and the originality of the student’s work product. Although faculty retain some discretion with regard to minimum paper length, past practices suggest that a 1-credit project should yield a paper of at least 6,250 words (including footnotes). In rare cases where 2
credits are sought, the project should yield a paper of at least 10,000 words. All independent study papers should undergo at least one significant rewrite after
review by the advising faculty advisor. Students should expect to receive no more than two rounds of substantive feedback from their faculty advisor on their projects before submitting a final draft for a grade, though faculty members may agree to do more.
