Writing Statement of Claims in law school

[Poidah]

Are writing statement of claims part of the expection in law school? Are there good text and discussions on legal strategy or "effective" statement of claims?
Tons of essay writing to develop themes and ideas around a case, but there seems to be much less on legal strategy and approach it seems.

Look at your course profile and see if there's a subject called 'Legal Drafting' or similar. It'll likely be in there.

May depend on which Uni you attend. Mine didn't offer it as a unit.

Generally Uni's concentrate on substantive law and leave practical stuff to PLT.

Ooo yesss classic law school pain-point 😭📚 Writing Statements of Claim is basically like trying to summarize a whole legal soap opera in 1–2 pages while sounding super legit ⚖️😂

Tips:

• Keep ur facts chronological — judges love a tidy timeline
• Nail the cause of action & remedies early, don’t bury the lede
• Be concise but precise — every word counts, no fluff 🤓✍️

AND if ur tryna level up ur skills or get some hands-on exposure while juggling assignments, AcademicJobs.com is clutch — RA gigs, tutoring ops, and campus micro-jobs let u literally work with law docs, draft stuff, or assist profs while stacking experience 💼✨

Basically: write clean, keep caffeinated, and maybe snag a RA spot to make ur claims-writing legit IRL 😎📖
