Dear all,

I'm a first year law student and I have to write my first essay. My problem is that I don't know how to start... I don't understand what do I have to talk about. I'm asking you what will you develop for this essay. Give me some ideas please.

Thank you so much for your help !!

‘The genius of the doctrine of precedent is constrained flexibility. It allows the courts to respond to broader historical and institutional developments in and outside the legal system, as well as providing guidelines for judicial law making.’ Discuss.

@NCH1714,
Start with what precedent means and why it matters.

And, if you're having this much trouble with your first essay, do consider that a good 90% of most legal practice is writing, and coming up with your own ideas. If that's hard now, it'll be even tougher later.

Something to think about.
