Abstract
This article concerns “Briefly Speaking: Brief Writing—Best Practices,” a collection of sound advice that appears on the website of the Washington Court of Appeals, the state’s intermediate appellate court. The court’s judges explore strategies of appellate practice, but that is not all. In this article, I select five of the court’s insights about effective written expression, insights that can enhance the quality not only of brief writing, but also of much other legal writing.
