Legal Reasoning and Logic Fundamentals by kbongco is a document available to read on EtoBox.
Legal reasoning involves presenting arguments to prove or justify a claim. An argument consists of an issue, rules, facts, analysis, and conclusion. There are two key criteria for evaluating legal reasoning: truth and logic. Truth pertains to whether the factual premises are acceptable. Logic pertains to whether the reasoning connecting the premises to the conclusion is valid. Legal arguments rely on evidence, precedents, testimony, and expert opinions to establish truth and employ sound deductive logic.
