# present arguments persuasively — Legal Counsel

For Legal Counsel, 'presenting arguments persuasively' isn’t about winning a shouting match; it’s the core of *everything*. Daily tasks like drafting briefs, memos, contract clauses, or even internal advice all require framing legal positions to convince a specific audience – a judge, opposing counsel, a client, or company leadership. It means anticipating counter-arguments and proactively addressing them, not just stating the law but explaining *why* it supports your position in a way that resonates with the decision-maker's priorities (risk aversion for clients, legal precedent for judges). Tools include clear writing style guides (like the Bluebook), logical outlining techniques, and understanding rhetorical devices – all geared towards building credibility.
