* For 12 years Stark taught legal writing to Harvard Law School students. Stark argues that good legal writing should pass what he calls the McDonald’s test. “If you were to read the document you’re drafting aloud in McDonald’s,” Starks asks, “would people understand what you’re saying?” He also insists that, like fiction writers and journalists, lawyers need to be good storytellers. “On one level,” he says, “a lawsuit is simply a clash of competing stories.” Among his many salient points are his recommendations that you should lead with your conclusions (“Legal arguments or explanations,” he says, “should not be like an O. Henry short story”).
