Judicial Writing Chinua Asuzu

"To validate their institutional continuance as a branch of government", writes Chinua Asuzu, "judges must make sound decisions. They must also articulate and express those decisions efficiently and comprehensibly." This book shows how. This book will help judges, arbitrators, and other decision-writers master the art and science of judicial writing. A most welcome guide, Judicial Writing: A Benchmark for the Bench sets a high, yet attainable, standard of excellence for writing judicial decisions. It will no doubt become the reference point for judging judges and their judgments. Chinua Asuzu is that uncommon lawyer who wrote The Uncommon Law of Learned Writing. His other works include Anatomy of a Brief and Fair Hearing in Nigeria. A versatile arbitrator, Asuzu served as an administrative-law judge at the Tax Appeal Tribunal in Nigeria from 2010 to 2016. He is now the Senior Partner of Assizes Lawfirm, a team of tax lawyers.
