ALL RIGHTS RESERVED BY THE AUTHORS, No. A278 pa 4? es Me ain On Cy whoo Ee The practice of the legal profession is very interesting although a burdensome undertaking. Unlike other professions, law practice entails not only in depth knowledge and understanding of the law and mastery of the rules on evidence, criminal and civil procedures, more importantly, it requires of the practitioner eloquence both in speech and in writing. . The written word plays an important role in the life of both the members of the bar and the bench. It has the power not only to communicate but to persuade the decision maker. However, if ‘words are not put together correctly and intelligently, they can be destructive and reduce to futility the purpose for which they were phrased. For this reason, legal writing and legal forms are taught in law school though not as a separate subject, because it is of Paramount importance that the law student polish his ability and skill in the art of writing. There are many books on legal forms that are available in the market today that even the decision to choose which one to buy becomes difficult to make, Each person has a different need. A judge or a seasoned lawyer may prefer a book using sophisticated phraseology but a new member of the bar or a law student may prefer a book with simple and straightforward language. ‘Thus, to be able to capture both clients, the author should be innovative and practical. It is gratifying to noto that tho authors ‘of this book, who are both an active law practitioners had found the time and effort to prepare LEGAL FORMS AND PRACTICAL EXERCISES for publication. ‘This book will prove useful for judges, lawyers, bar candidates, ‘and law students. The added benefit of this book is the appendices ‘wich as the 2004 Rules on Notarial Practice, 2019 Amended Rules ‘on Civil Procedure and 2019 Amended Rules on Evidence. ATTY. ANTONETTE L.
