Teach Me a Case
A teaching skill that walks an expert appellate lawyer through the background of an unfamiliar case or matter, one bite-sized step at a time.
Teach Me a Case orients first—what kind of case, who won, why it matters—then builds up the players and posture, the real-world problem underneath the legal dispute, the question presented, and the reasoning, one bite-sized step at a time.
It works from the actual opinion or statute text rather than memory, defines every technical term in plain English on first use, and avoids rhetorical questions and condescension.
Best for
- Getting up to speed on an unfamiliar area before a call or a pitch
