Copywriting & Editing for Law Firms

About Alison Hunt

I am an independent copywriter and editor specialising in working for law firms or barristers' chambers.

Employment and qualifications

In 1983, I became a law librarian. Much to my surprise, I found the law was more interesting than I had expected. I therefore took up studying and became a fully qualified Legal Executive by the 1990s. In 1996, I gained a post graduate diploma in EU Competition Law, and in 1997 I was awarded the Lawyer Hifal award for my work in disseminating EU law.

I worked for RadcliffesLeBrasseur until 2003. Whilst there, I wrote and edited a wide variety of leaflets for clients explaining legal developments in a clear and interesting way. I also provided legal research for fee-earners on European Union legislation, and on many other subjects including data protection, e-commerce and employment law. In addition, I gave courses on various legal developments and wrote talks for other lawyers to deliver.

Since leaving RadcliffesLeBrasseur I have focused on helping to market solicitors' firms and barristers' chambers by copywriting, including writing profiles of their lawyers. I have also edited legal articles drafted by them for their non-lawyer clients to read.
