This book helps legal staff use Microsoft Word 2010 to prepare pleadings, contracts, and other complex documents. The author, a computer trainer with extensive experience as a legal word processor, starts by describing what's new and different in this version of Word. She then examines Word's "logic," the key to mastering the program. She offers tips for making Word 2010 work more like older versions, customizing the Ribbon and the Quick Access Toolbar, and using keyboard shortcuts. She explains everyday features such as headers and footers, automatic numbering, indents, and footnotes and gives step-by-step instructions for working with case captions, inserting a pleading footer, aligning text with pleading line numbers, setting up a style for indented quotes, creating and generating a Table of Contents and a Table of Authorities, tracking changes, and comparing documents. In addition, she touches on the issues of metadata removal and document corruption. The book is filled with pragmatic tips, tricks, and workarounds.

    I'm a word processor who has worked in the financial field for years and had to pass a test at a temp agency for law firm work. This book gave me the information that I needed to pass the test with flying colors! It goes into great detail about features of MS Word that are used regularly in law firms. It's a great reference!

    Excellent book. I have only recently made the move from Word 2003 to 2010 and this book I one of the best guides that I have found for Word 2010, and I have a substantial library of books on Word from Word 97 onward. I highly recommend it.

    Finally! A book that lends a hand to advanced formatting for Legal Documents. I didn't have to course through the entired book, I just looked through the index and found the chapters I needed.

    Wasn't disappointed at all and I recommend it if you work with formatting legal documents.

    I think probably the audience of this book is only for readers with academic legal background. I am trying to find easy to read guidelines or flowcharts to follow to handle long document, this book does not meet my satidfaction.

    I've heard great things about this book. I'm a WordPerfect law office person now getting used to also using Microsoft Word more for legal documents. I appreciated the detailed intsructions of producing Tables of Points and Authorities, Tables of Contents, and other advanced features. I've recommended the book to other legal professionals.

    If you are a legal professional, this is the book for you. You can tell that this drawn from real world experience. Would be worth it at 10 times the price.

    1.0 out of 5 stars waste of money
    Reviewed in the United States on June 28, 2012

    Maybe I am jaded, but this is a book that has little to offer if you have struggled with Word for many years in the legal setting. Perhaps for the beginner it might be helpful, but for motion writing it had little to add over the books I already own.

    This is a great study guide for getting to know your way around word in a very specific way. I would recommend this one for sure.
