[quote=Anonymous]No typos. Sounds elementary, but you'd be amazed how many we get with typos. If the writing sample is otherwise amazing I will overlook it, but of course that is rare. Most of the time it just makes you look like you either don't care, or don't realize that lawyers love attention to detail. Also, while this is a stretch, it is nice if the subject matter is either relevant to the job or interesting in and of itself. And I tend to prefer practical materials such as a brief, motion, or research memo, rather than a law review article. [/quote]
