Qld
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.
