About the book.
Legal Writing I & II; Legal Research and Writing & Introduction to Litigation Practice contains a brief discussion of all of the topics covered in a law school courses on legal writing, including a typical first semester course on legal research, analysis and writing an objective memorandum, as well as a second semester course on persuasion and writing an appellate brief, motion to dismiss or motion for summary judgment. The discussion focuses on the basics of analogical reasoning and persuasion and leaves out the minutiae. Each topic is taken one step at a time, with each step building on the step before it. The sources of law are presented first, then legal research, and reading and analyzing cases and statutes. The book covers analogizing a case to a fact pattern and marshaling the relevant facts to the elements of a statutory rule next. And then first section of the book concludes with legal citation, CRAC and CREAC, and writing a legal research memorandum. The text also includes a lot of samples and examples of how the author would write a case brief, a legal memoranda and an appellate brief, as well as an appendix with charts, outlines and exercises students can use to practice these skills. Legal Writing I & II; Legal Research and Writing & Introduction to Litigation Practice covers all the skills students need to know to work at a law firm, and everything students have to learn to begin practicing in litigation department of a firm.

Legal Research Strategy
Preliminary analysis, organization, secondary sources, primary sources, updating research, identifying an end point, getting help, about this guide.
This guide will walk a beginning researcher though the legal research process step-by-step. These materials are created with the 1L Legal Research & Writing course in mind. However, these resources will also assist upper-level students engaged in any legal research project.
How to Strategize
Legal research must be comprehensive and precise. One contrary source that you miss may invalidate other sources you plan to rely on. Sticking to a strategy will save you time, ensure completeness, and improve your work product.
Follow These Steps
Running Time: 3 minutes, 13 seconds.
Make sure that you don't miss any steps by using our:
- Legal Research Strategy Checklist
If you get stuck at any time during the process, check this out:
- Ten Tips for Moving Beyond the Brick Wall in the Legal Research Process, by Marsha L. Baum
Understanding the Legal Questions
A legal question often originates as a problem or story about a series of events. In law school, these stories are called fact patterns. In practice, facts may arise from a manager or an interview with a potential client. Start by doing the following:
- Read anything you have been given
- Analyze the facts and frame the legal issues
- Assess what you know and need to learn
- Note the jurisdiction and any primary law you have been given
- Generate potential search terms
Jurisdiction
Legal rules will vary depending on where geographically your legal question will be answered. You must determine the jurisdiction in which your claim will be heard. These resources can help you learn more about jurisdiction and how it is determined:
- Legal Treatises on Jurisdiction
- LII Wex Entry on Jurisdiction
This map indicates which states are in each federal appellate circuit:
Getting Started
Once you have begun your research, you will need to keep track of your work. Logging your research will help you to avoid missing sources and explain your research strategy. You will likely be asked to explain your research process when in practice. Researchers can keep paper logs, folders on Westlaw or Lexis, or online citation management platforms.
Organizational Methods
Tracking with paper or excel.
Many researchers create their own tracking charts. Be sure to include:
- Search Date
- Topics/Keywords/Search Strategy
- Citation to Relevant Source Found
- Save Locations
- Follow Up Needed
Consider using the following research log as a starting place:
- Sample Research Log
Tracking with Folders
Westlaw and Lexis offer options to create folders, then save and organize your materials there.
- Lexis Advance Folders
- Westlaw Edge Folders
Tracking with Citation Management Software
For long term projects, platforms such as Zotero, EndNote, Mendeley, or Refworks might be useful. These are good tools to keep your research well organized. Note, however, that none of these platforms substitute for doing your own proper Bluebook citations. Learn more about citation management software on our other research guides:

Types of Sources
There are three different types of sources: Primary, Secondary, and Tertiary. When doing legal research you will be using mostly primary and secondary sources. We will explore these different types of sources in the sections below.
Secondary sources often explain legal principles more thoroughly than a single case or statute. Starting with them can help you save time.
Secondary sources are particularly useful for:
- Learning the basics of a particular area of law
- Understanding key terms of art in an area
- Identifying essential cases and statutes
Consider the following when deciding which type of secondary source is right for you:
- Scope/Breadth
- Depth of Treatment
- Currentness/Reliability
For a deep dive into secondary sources visit:
- Secondary Sources: ALRs, Encyclopedias, Law Reviews, Restatements, & Treatises by Catherine Biondo Last Updated Sep 12, 2023 1510 views this year
Legal Dictionaries & Encyclopedias
Legal dictionaries.
Legal dictionaries are similar to other dictionaries that you have likely used before.
- Black's Law Dictionary
- Ballentine's Law Dictionary
Legal Encyclopedias
Legal encyclopedias contain brief, broad summaries of legal topics, providing introductions and explaining terms of art. They also provide citations to primary law and relevant major law review articles.
Here are the two major national encyclopedias:
- American Jurisprudence (AmJur) This resource is also available in Westlaw & Lexis .
- Corpus Juris Secundum (CJS)
Treatises are books on legal topics. These books are a good place to begin your research. They provide explanation, analysis, and citations to the most relevant primary sources. Treatises range from single subject overviews to deep treatments of broad subject areas.
It is important to check the date when the treatise was published. Many are either not updated, or are updated through the release of newer editions.
To find a relevant treatise explore:
- Legal Treatises by Subject by Catherine Biondo Last Updated Sep 12, 2023 1328 views this year
American Law Reports (ALR)
American Law Reports (ALR) contains in-depth articles on narrow topics of the law. ALR articles, are often called annotations. They provide background, analysis, and citations to relevant cases, statutes, articles, and other annotations. ALR annotations are invaluable tools to quickly find primary law on narrow legal questions.
This resource is available in both Westlaw and Lexis:
- American Law Reports on Westlaw (includes index)
- American Law Reports on Lexis
Law Reviews & Journals
Law reviews are scholarly publications, usually edited by law students in conjunction with faculty members. They contain both lengthy articles and shorter essays by professors and lawyers. They also contain comments, notes, or developments in the law written by law students. Articles often focus on new or emerging areas of law and may offer critical commentary. Some law reviews are dedicated to a particular topic while others are general. Occasionally, law reviews will include issues devoted to proceedings of panels and symposia.
Law review and journal articles are extremely narrow and deep with extensive references.
To find law review articles visit:
- Law Journal Library on HeinOnline
- Law Reviews & Journals on LexisNexis
- Law Reviews & Journals on Westlaw
Restatements
Restatements are highly regarded distillations of common law, prepared by the American Law Institute (ALI). ALI is a prestigious organization comprised of judges, professors, and lawyers. They distill the "black letter law" from cases to indicate trends in common law. Resulting in a “restatement” of existing common law into a series of principles or rules. Occasionally, they make recommendations on what a rule of law should be.
Restatements are not primary law. However, they are considered persuasive authority by many courts.
Restatements are organized into chapters, titles, and sections. Sections contain the following:
- a concisely stated rule of law,
- comments to clarify the rule,
- hypothetical examples,
- explanation of purpose, and
- exceptions to the rule
To access restatements visit:
- American Law Institute Library on HeinOnline
- Restatements & Principles of the Law on LexisNexis
- Restatements & Principles of Law on Westlaw
Primary Authority
Primary authority is "authority that issues directly from a law-making body." Authority , Black's Law Dictionary (11th ed. 2019). Sources of primary authority include:
- Constitutions
- Statutes
Regulations
Access to primary legal sources is available through:
- Bloomberg Law
- Free & Low Cost Alternatives
Statutes (also called legislation) are "laws enacted by legislative bodies", such as Congress and state legislatures. Statute , Black's Law Dictionary (11th ed. 2019).
We typically start primary law research here. If there is a controlling statute, cases you look for later will interpret that law. There are two types of statutes, annotated and unannotated.
Annotated codes are a great place to start your research. They combine statutory language with citations to cases, regulations, secondary sources, and other relevant statutes. This can quickly connect you to the most relevant cases related to a particular law. Unannotated Codes provide only the text of the statute without editorial additions. Unannotated codes, however, are more often considered official and used for citation purposes.

Regulations are rules made by executive departments and agencies. Not every legal question will require you to search regulations. However, many areas of law are affected by regulations. So make sure not to skip this step if they are relevant to your question.

Case Basics
In many areas, finding relevant caselaw will comprise a significant part of your research. This Is particularly true in legal areas that rely heavily on common law principles.
Running Time: 3 minutes, 10 seconds.
Unpublished Cases
Up to 86% of federal case opinions are unpublished. You must determine whether your jurisdiction will consider these unpublished cases as persuasive authority. The Federal Rules of Appellate Procedure have an overarching rule, Rule 32.1 Each circuit also has local rules regarding citations to unpublished opinions. You must understand both the Federal Rule and the rule in your jurisdiction.
- Federal and Local Rules of Appellate Procedure 32.1 (Dec. 2021).
- Type of Opinion or Order Filed in Cases Terminated on the Merits, by Circuit (Sept. 2021).
Each state also has its own local rules which can often be accessed through:
- State Bar Associations
- State Courts Websites
First Circuit
- First Circuit Court Rule 32.1.0
Second Circuit
- Second Circuit Court Rule 32.1.1
Third Circuit

Finding Cases
Headnotes show the key legal points in a case. Legal databases use these headnotes to guide researchers to other cases on the same topic. They also use them to organize concepts explored in cases by subject. Publishers, like Westlaw and Lexis, create headnotes, so they are not consistent across databases.
Headnotes are organized by subject into an outline that allows you to search by subject. This outline is known as a "digest of cases." By browsing or searching the digest you can retrieve all headnotes covering a particular topic. This can help you identify particularly important cases on the relevant subject.
Running Time: 4 minutes, 43 seconds.
Each major legal database has its own digest:
- Topic Navigator (Lexis)
- Key Digest System (Westlaw)
Start by identifying a relevant topic in a digest. Then you can limit those results to your jurisdiction for more relevant results. Sometimes, you can keyword search within only the results on your topic in your jurisdiction. This is a particularly powerful research method.
One Good Case Method
After following the steps above, you will have identified some relevant cases on your topic. You can use good cases you find to locate other cases addressing the same topic. These other cases often apply similar rules to a range of diverse fact patterns.
- in Lexis click "More Like This Headnote"
- in Westlaw click "Cases that Cite This Headnote"
to focus on the terms of art or key words in a particular headnote. You can use this feature to find more cases with similar language and concepts.
Ways to Use Citators
A citator is "a catalogued list of cases, statutes, and other legal sources showing the subsequent history and current precedential value of those sources. Citators allow researchers to verify the authority of a precedent and to find additional sources relating to a given subject." Citator , Black's Law Dictionary (11th ed. 2019).
Each major legal database has its own citator. The two most popular are Keycite on Westlaw and Shepard's on Lexis.
- Keycite Information Page
- Shepard's Information Page
Making Sure Your Case is Still Good Law
This video answers common questions about citators:
For step-by-step instructions on how to use Keycite and Shepard's see the following:
- Shepard's Video Tutorial
- Shepard's Handout
- Shepard's Editorial Phrase Dictionary
- KeyCite Video Tutorial
- KeyCite Handout
- KeyCite Editorial Phrase Dictionary
Using Citators For
Citators serve three purposes: (1) case validation, (2) better understanding, and (3) additional research.
Case Validation
Is my case or statute good law?
- Parallel citations
- Prior and subsequent history
- Negative treatment suggesting you should no longer cite to holding.
Better Understanding
Has the law in this area changed?
- Later cases on the same point of law
- Positive treatment, explaining or expanding the law.
- Negative Treatment, narrowing or distinguishing the law.
Track Research
Who is citing and writing about my case or statute?
- Secondary sources that discuss your case or statute.
- Cases in other jurisdictions that discuss your case or statute.

Legal writing refers generally to the analysis of fact patterns and presentation of arguments in legal memos and briefs. The vast majority of legal internships and permanent positions will require the deployment of legal writing skills. Those working in settings where client-based or impact litigation are the principal focus will draft and file legal briefs that coherently present their side’s written arguments to the court. Certain positions might entail the drafting of predictive memos, which anticipate the arguments of opposing counsel. Even non-litigation positions may require you to research a legal question, analyze the relevant legal precedents, and present an answer in a memo. Work in academia may involve not only writing for scholarly publications but also teaching law students the basics of legal writing and citation. Some larger government agencies and non-profit organizations may also hire someone to provide legal writing training to new hires or to oversee their legal publications.
