英文律师辩论书的写作
2023-12-18 09:41:51    etogether.net    网络    


学习写作律师辩论书(Briefs)乃英美法学院学生的第一要务。律师辩论书又分两种,一种是给初审法院的,一种是给上诉法院的。律师辩论书在格式上要求比较严格并一般都有字数限制,其基本内容一般包括:

标题(Caption)

问题的提出(Questions Presented)

事实陈述(Statement of Facts)

辩论(Argument)

结论(Conclusion)

很显然,律师辩论书的重点是辩论部分,你一定要把争论的焦点问题罗列清楚,从正反两个方面进行辩论。律师辩论书和法律分析报告最大的不同就是前者是主观的,后者是客观的。写法律分析报告时你还不一定知道会得出什么结论,但写律师辩论书时你一定知道自己的结论,那就是要求法院作出有利于你的当事人的判决。
