[QUOTE="Abbie Whitlock, post: 240810, member: 42112"] Hello! I have previously made a post on how I would approach a client email written exercise - I have quoted it below! In terms of translating this to a client letter, the core principles are likely to be the same (e.g. audience, clarity, structure), but the tone and formatting tend to be slightly more formal. I'd perhaps think of it as a more polished version of a client email - use clear headings, full sentences, and a logical flow of information. You could also include a brief introduction that sets out the purpose of the letter, as well as a short conclusion that summarise the main advice and any next steps. In terms of client communication in any format, it's especially important to explain the law in plain English and keep the advice practical and client-focused. If in doubt, I would prioritise clarity over specific legal detail - the graduate recruitment team likely want to see that you are putting yourself in the client's shoes, and have an understanding of what they would prioritise. I hope that helps, and best of luck! :) [/QUOTE]
