Abstract

Everyone wants concise writing — writing that conveys information in the shortest, simplest way possible. But while most of us know concise writing when we see it (or, just as often, when we don’t see it), it can be hard to replicate it in our own work. Here are four steps that will have you writing more efficiently in no time.

Keywords: legal writing, editing, writing, grammar
