Find four cases from your state that discuss the formation of the attorney-client relationship. For each case, prepare a one-page legal brief as you learned to do in Legal Research and Writing I. In case you need a quick reminder, a legal brief identifies and discusses: Issue, Rule, Holding/Decision and Analysis/Reasoning of the case. Each case must consider a different issue stemming from the attorney-client relationship. Remember to use Bluebook format and citations.

Your assignment should demonstrate an understanding of legal writing, as well as the differences between legal writing and academic writing. It should demonstrate thoughtful consideration, a good understanding of the substantive content and demonstrate your ability to communicate information clearly, effectively and in an appropriate tone. Your response should reflect graduate-level writing and BLUEBOOK standards for formatting and citation. Be sure to adhere to Northcentral University’s Academic Integrity Policy.
