Review (PDF) Advanced Appellate Advocacy
Advanced Appellate Advocacy is a mastery textbook, designed to bridge students from second and third semester writing courses to appellate simulations and clinics that involve substantial writing projects. Because it offers a robust appellate education, conveying the creativity, strategy, and sophistication behind real appeals, the text can also serve as a handbook for new lawyers entering appellate practice. This textbook is a first-of-its kind collaboration among authors with decades of appellate practice and clinical and legal writing teaching among them. The author team includes Carter Phillips, one of the most highly rated Supreme Court advocates of our time. Advanced Appellate Advocacy also uses charts, diagrams, and reflection questions to engage readers, and practice pointers based on the authors' interviews with appellate specialists and their own practice experiences are sprinkled throughout the chapters. The text is enriched by an on-line companion that houses all of the text's exercises, additional briefs and working documents, and interviews with prominent appellate practitioners.Features:Organized to track the progress of an appeal, the text offers students explicit process-based guidance linked to each phaseGoing Beyond IRAC, the text teaches more flexible, sophisticated writing approaches, illustrating them with models from expert appellate briefsIncludes charts, diagrams, examples, and reflection questions

This text offers a fantastic, in-depth primer on appellate advocacy, both written and oral. The book provides a foundation in appellate procedure, ample examples of stellar appellate briefs to guide the writing process, and plenty of chances to put the lessons into practice. The online supplement contains interviews with appellate advocates well worth listening to. I find myself turning back to this book repeatedly, and this is definitely not a textbook I'll be trading in any time soon.
