'''Law school outlines''' are legal [[study aid]]s. Typically, the outlines are created by [[law school]] students, however there are professional outlines also available. An outline typically provides a concise and direct statement of legal issues in a particular area of [[law]], organized according to the typical law school [[curriculum]]. Outlines often remove many legal nuances and fact specific distinctions in [[case law]] to establish more generalized legal principles.
Law school outlines help law students focus on the most important material they learned for the semester, and are helpful before an exam. They are necessary because it would be impossible to even skim over all of the material they are expected to cover in a semester.
Outlines are commercially available from several publishers, including [[LexisNexis]] and [[Westlaw]]. These publishers have outlines for courses most commonly taught in the first year of law school including [[Torts]], [[Contracts]], [[Property (law)|Property]], [[Civil procedure]] and [[Evidence (law)|Evidence]].
