Lawyering Process

Over twenty years ago, DU Sturm College of Law converted its first-year legal research course into the Lawyering Process Program, a broader legal writing, research, and skills course simulating practice in a law firm or similar legal environment. In LP, students learn the fundamental tools of lawyering: analyzing and solving legal problems, and communicating the results in clear legal form. In their second and third years, students expand on this foundation through required advanced legal writing courses and elective experiences in seminars, moot courts, law reviews, and advanced legal research classes.
