A possible career for legal writers

Those in the legal writing field may be interested to know that appellate litigation is a burgeoning specialty. A recent article by two practicing lawyers discusses this trend and predicts that it will continue, due to the increased sophistication of in-house counsel and law firms about the need for skilled appellate lawyers.  Thomas Hungar & Nikesh Jindal, Observations on the Rise of the Appellate Litigator, 29 Rev. Litig 511 (2010).  This growing field is an attractive career choice for accomplished legal writers.
