SUMMARY:2025 New England Legal Writing Conference
DESCRIPTION:Vermont Law and Graduate School (VLGS) looks forward to hosting professors from near and far for the the 2025 New England Legal Writing Conference. This year’s theme is “Legal Writing: 2035.” \n\n\n\nParticipants will be asked to imagine the promise—and peril—of the future of legal writing. What will legal writing look like ten years from now? How should legal writing professors pivot to address rapidly evolving developments in technology and society? Which core principles of legal writing should we preserve–and which should we abandon?  \n\n\n\nFor conference details\, including information on registration and hotel accommodations\, please click here.
