What to expect:
A hands-on, three-part webinar that shows you how to fix messy documents, build reliable templates, and cut hours of repetitive drafting.
Part 1: Styles: Word’s Most Complicated Feature Explained and Demonstrated
Thursday, January 8th 11 a.m. PT | 2:00 p.m. ET
If your documents ever behave like they have a mind of their own, this is why. You’ll see how Word applies styles behind the scenes, why you can’t fully turn this off, and how to spot which style is causing the chaos. By the end, you’ll know how to fix formatting issues at the root instead of patching them with manual workarounds.
Part 2: Automatic Tables of Contents and Tables of Authority in Microsoft Word
Thursday, January 15th 11 a.m. PT | 2:00 p.m. ET
Manually building a table of contents and table of authority is a recipe for missing entries and wrong page numbers. This session shows you how to generate accurate, court-ready tables with Word’s built-in tools—and how to apply an appellate brief template so your references stay clean and consistent.
Part 3: Microsoft Word Document Automation Tools
Thursday, January 22nd 11 a.m. PT | 2:00 p.m. ET
Word comes with more automation than most legal professionals realize. You’ll get a clear breakdown of AutoText, AutoCorrect, Quick Parts, Macros, and Merge Fields—and how to use them to build reusable clauses, reduce errors, and shave hours off your drafting time.
