Summary

Motion writing should be as fun and inspiring for the drafter and as compelling for the reader; as music is for the listener. In this program, Tracy Frankel takes you through a musical playlist that corresponds to the many tips, rules and strategies you will need to prepare a persuasive motion.  This course will provide standards to live by when making motions of any kind; strategies for the Notice of Motion, Affirmation and Memorandum of Law; helpful tips for the inclusion of exhibits; and statutory and ethical principles to help guide your work.

*For experienced attorneys only
Please note that as of 1/1/26, the NYS CLE Board requires all newly admitted attorneys to complete Skills credits in the traditional live classroom setting or by fully interactive videoconference (group participation only).  This on-demand program does not fulfill that requirement for newly admitted attorneys.
