The fifth edition of Learning Legal Skills and Reasoning discusses the main sources of English law and explains how to work with legal texts in order to construct credible legal arguments which can be applied in coursework, exams or presentations.
Language skills, study skills, argument skills and the skills associated with dispute resolution are vital to every law student, professional lawyer and academic. The 5th edition of Learning Legal Skills and Reasoning draws on a range of areas of law to show how these key skills can be learnt and mastered, bridging the gap between substantive legal subjects and the skills required to become a successful law student.

The book is split into four sections:






Sources of law: Including domestic, European and international law.



Working with the law: Featuring advice on how to find and understand the most appropriate legislation and cases.



Applying your research: How to construct a legal argument, answer a problem question and present orally (mooting).



Skills for solving disputes: From negotiation to mediation and beyond.

Packed full of practical examples and diagrams to illustrate each legal skill, this new edition has been fully updated and now includes a new chapter on drafting. It will be an essential companion for any student wishing to acquire the legal skills necessary to become a successful law student.
