Legal Essay Checklist

We have two amazing checklists you can use as you write your research essays.

The Legal-Essay-Checklist for Research (1) will help you plan and implement the research phase of any project.  You would use this checklist as you start researching your project – it is designed to help you start thinking about what you need to do, where to find the information and how to analyse it once you have found it.

The Legal-Essay-Checklist for Writing will help you check to ensure your legal essay is ready for submission! Your aim is to complete every item on the list.  Note this checklist is designed to help you once you have what you think is a COMPLETE draft.  If you are at the early stages of writing your essay, the list can also help identify the elements you are working toward.

You can navigate within the document to find explainers for many of the items.

Just click inside the box to indicate each completed item, and bring the list (or email it) for appointments with your academic advisor.
