A legal research memo summarizes the findings of legal research focusing on a particular legal question or issue and answers it with appropriate legal authority. The memo also addresses an overview of the relevant facts, if any, and frames the legal question(s) that would be presented before the court in a particular case. As it typically includes a thorough analysis of relevant laws, statutes, regulations, cases, and legal precedents that pertain to the issue at hand, the results of the research help the attorney to better understand the case and its flaws.

A formal research memo will contain a clear and concise explanation of the applicable legal principles, their analysis and interpretation, and their potential impact on the case or situation being examined with the following components:

  • Question Presented: This section identifies the legal issue or question being researched. An issue determines the problem that needs to be resolved and sets the scope of the research memo.
  • Relevant Facts: If the issue is related to any specific facts of the case, the relevant facts and background information of the case or situation are summarized. These facts help provide context for the legal analysis and assist in understanding the issues at stake.
    Short Answer: This section has a short answer to the issue presented. This will help the attorney to quickly get an answer to the issue being examined.
  • Research Findings: This is the main body of the memo and contains the relevant statutes/regulations, and the analysis of the legal issue. The memo examines how the relevant statutes/regulations apply to the facts of the case. This section will also have sub-headings as required. The legal arguments will be presented along with their strengths and weaknesses. Persuasive research memos will focus on establishing a specific argument to address the issue.
  • Conclusion: This section provides a clear answer to the legal issue presented or a recommendation based on the research and analysis. It summarizes the main findings and addresses the legal issue or question presented in the memo.

A well-organized legal research memo is often considered an effective tool used by attorneys as a basis for making informed legal decisions, preparing arguments, or providing legal advice to clients. We also do Informal Research Memo with basic components containing Question Presented, Relevant Facts, and a Short Answer, along with case law and statutes or regulations as Research without analysis or conclusion.

3. What types of motions and pleadings can you draft for my case?

We draft all kinds of motions as a procedural device to bring a particular issue to the court’s attention and ask for a decision on it. Some of the main types of motions include:

  • Motion to Dismiss: Filed based on failure to state a legal claim or lack of jurisdiction.
  • Motion for Summary Judgment: Seeks a judgment without a trial arguing that there are no genuine issues of material fact and that the moving party is entitled to judgment as a matter of law.
  • Motion for Default Judgment: Filed when a party fails to respond to a lawsuit or to comply with court orders.
  • Motion for Discovery: A request to exchange information and evidence between the parties like taking depositions. A discovery package mainly includes Request for
  • Interrogatories, Request for Production, Request for Admissions, or other forms of discovery.
  • Motion to Compel: Mostly filed when a party fails to adequately respond to discovery requests.
  • Motion for Preliminary Injunction: When a party needs a temporary court order to prevent another party from taking certain actions until the case is resolved. It often maintains the status quo or helps prevent irreparable harm.
  • Motion for a New Trial: Filed after a trial has concluded. The motion addresses errors that occurred during the trial that affected the outcome of the case or when there is the discovery of new evidence.
  • Motion to Suppress Evidence: A request to the court to exclude certain evidence from being presented at trial. Typically, filed when some evidence was obtained illegally or in violation of constitutional rights.
  • Motion for Protective Order: When a party believes that certain information or documents should be kept confidential or protected from public disclosure.
  • Motion for Change of Venue: A request to the court to move the case to a different location where it is believed that a fair trial cannot be obtained in a jurisdiction.

We have several services and resources that could help you assist in preparing for a trial. These services aim to streamline the process, provide access to relevant information, and enhance the overall efficiency and effectiveness of trial preparation. Here are some examples:

Attorneys can also use our 24/7 Query Service and skeletal drafts and research database, and other relevant materials to frame effective arguments and develop a strong legal strategy for a case.
  2. E-Discovery Services: Electronic discovery (e-discovery) services assist in managing and analyzing large volumes of electronic data during the discovery phase of a trial. These services use advanced search and data analytics techniques to identify relevant documents, emails, and other digital evidence that may be crucial to the case.
  3. Deposition Summary Services: This provides a concise and objective summary of the recorded or transcribed legal depositions. Deposition summaries condense the original versions of the deposition transcript that capture the essential information and key points discussed during the testimony. They aim to provide an accurate and succinct summary of the deposition, highlighting the most relevant facts, arguments, and responses. This saves time and effort in reviewing lengthy transcripts and can also be used during trial preparation, settlement negotiations, or for reference during court proceedings.
