Legal Writing Centre

Legal Writing Centre Header

Lincoln Alexander Law's newly launched Legal Writing Centre is designed to help our students build and improve their legal and academic writing skills through one-on-one teaching sessions. Our Legal Writing Centre is aimed at strengthening writing expertise with a focus on big-picture content and the personalized communication of ideas. Our hope is to help our law students become more confident writers.

Our Legal Writing Specialist, Odelia Bay, can assist students with law school assignments at any stage of the writing process: from understanding instructions and planning or researching, to answering questions during the writing process, and even to deciphering professor feedback on marked assignments or making edits for publication. Odelia will also provide support for applications for jobs, graduate school, etc.
