Legal Writing Institute (LWI) This year LWI will present the annual Golden Pen award to the National Association of Attorneys General (NAAG) based on the work they do to help attorneys general deliver high quality legal writing in their briefs. The representative at the ceremony will be Dan Schweitzer, the project counsel for NAAG’s Supreme Court P...roject – an initiative that helps AG’s who normally handle state appellate matters prepare for their arguments in front of the United States Supreme Court.

The Blackwell award, co-sponsored by both LWI and the Association of Legal Writing Directors, will be presented to Professor Linda Edwards, based on her glittering career in legal writing. Linda has undoubtedly touched the professional lives of everyone who has taught legal writing from the 1990’s forward. Her books, her articles, her presentations and her mentoring skills have made an enormous impact on the field.
