Bryan Garner has been called the “greatest lexographer of our time,” and he is on a mission to make legal writing better. He founded LawProse to teach lawyers to write more clearly, persuasively, and simply, which he does in day-long seminars across the country. He may be the nation’s foremost expert on legal writing, with a love of the craft that dates back to his teenage years. In addition to serving as Editor-in-Chief of Black’s Law Dictionary, Bryan has written more than 18 books, two with Justice Antonin Scalia, and most about legal writing. He has revised and restyled almost every set of Federal Rules, and he pens a monthly column about legal writing for the ABA Journal. The word you’re looking for is “prolific.”
