In Episode Five, "The Evolution of Legal Writing," Ashley and Reese explore the origins of legal writing and how legal writing has modernized today. They share how legal syntax favored Latin and complex sentence structures due to minimal client interaction. In its early days, writing was handwritten, so brevity wasn't a priority, and precedent mattered more than style. From questionable Latin words as kid names to going over their favorite punctuation marks, this episode highlights funny quirks of legal writing!
