A framework for legal argument

Joel P. Trachtman presents tools of argument developed within the legal discipline, placing the book at the intersection of trial practice and analytical reasoning. Its subject is how arguments are built and assessed, with legal knowledge as part of that framework. The description also connects these methods to situations beyond legal practice, including business and government contexts, where readers may need to make or evaluate a case. The emphasis is on argument as a practical skill grounded in law, rather than on a specific case or area of substantive law.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Law students and new lawyers seeking a foundation in legal argument.
  • Business professionals and government officials interested in applying argument tools in their work.
  • Readers looking to strengthen analytical thinking and foundational legal knowledge.
