IRAC with cases - sample memo

[@shawnaroebuck8114]

You will never know how much this has helped me Mr. Kim. I am a paralegal student and as part of my portfolio assignment I have to draft a memo of law. Thank you for taking the time to post this video

[@lrwprof]

Thanks for watching. I'm glad you found the video to be helpful. Where are you doing your paralegal studies?

[@lmk242]

Where can I find the memo to read🙈

[@dragnfly138]

This is amazing. Thanks so much. I feel like I should be paying you for my class and not my school.

[@vaniapetlane8391]

100%

[@andrewlittle7039]

Thank you mr Kim I learned more from you in 13 minutes then a whole semester of law class

[@chenxingliu5690]

Mr. Kim, this video is so helpful and it really gives me some directions to my business law assessment. I spend several days on analysing cases, but i still even don't know how to start it, until i find your video. Thank you so much, thanks for your time, i really appreciate it !!!

[@mw3flowers]

Mr. Kim, Thank you so much for this video. You made it so simple to understand. Seeing an example of a legal memo is so helpful, and they are not easy to find. Your notes and highlighting as you went along were also very helpful. I have been at a loss for how to write my legal memo for my paralegal class, and this will help me so much. Also, your voice and very kind and respectful tone are so encouraging. Thanks, again. You may have saved the day! :-)

Mr. Kim: AWESOME! Thank you very much. I am a paralegal studies major. All of your videos are helpful.

[@shawnaroebuck8114]

Hi Mr. Kim I am taking my classes with Bryant and Stratton and I wish I would have found your videos 9 months ago. I just started my tort and civil litigation class this past Wednesday. Thanks again please keep the videos coming. Shawna

[@White-rs7ci]

Thank you, Mr. Kim. I learned more from you than from my law class.

[@SalishaKhan-g8u]

Hi Mr. Kim! Thank you very much for your dedication to providing such a formative purview of this methodology! IT HELPED ME SO MUCH!!!

[@alisoncamilleri8963]

Your video was so helpful. Thank you for taking the time to share your expertise. I am in a very compacted paralegal training program and at this point it's all a blur - IRACing, legal briefs & memoranda ...

[@cora-leehemmero7535]

Thank you so much, this was brilliantly explained. You have simplified IRAC for me, and just in time for my test tomorrow!

[@rg9810]

Your a blessing my friend. Keep up the videos please!!!!! These lectures make my legal studies minor, and pre- law a breeze!!

[@rg9810]

I know these videos are old and the law is constantly changing. But these frameworks remain the same, Once again, Thanks Eugene Kim!!!

[@jessbourdon2482]

This was EXTREMELY helpful! Thank you so much for making these videos!

[@kdalgetty]

Dear Mr. Kim. Thank you for posting this video. I am a paralegal student in Ohio. I wish my instructor taught the way you do. This video has helped me understand IRAC, I did not fully understand it from the lecture my instructor gave on it. I will be subscribing to your channel. Thank you again. Best regards, Kristy D.

[@exhalesolutions]

This is a great, simple, straightforward memo. My legal writing class won't know what hit it! Thanks Mr. Kim.

[@dwaynedavid7858]

Sir, this is so good. I thank you very much for your wonderful explanation.

[@mrrockey96]

Wow! I’ve been struggling so hard to brief cases. Thank you so much!

[@SHELLLSKI81]

Wow. I wish I had seen this video 6 months ago. Great explanation, thank you!

[@lrwprof]

Here, like the defendant in Cohen v. Petty, Defendant Keegan was in good health at the time of the accident, and had never before fallen asleep while driving. Plaintiff Marino may argue that the present case is distinguishable because unlike in Cohen v. Petty, Keegan has a history of narcolepsy. Marino may argue, therefore, that Keegan should have known that he might suffer a narcoleptic episode while driving.

[@cleffktjiposa6223]

its very help helpful and very explained i have struggling with legal memorandum for long

[@lrwprof]

This rule of law comes from Cohen v. Petty, in which the Court of Appeals of the District of Columbia held that a defendant whose passengers were injured in a car crash caused by the defendant’s sudden fainting was not chargeable with negligence when he had never fainted before and was in good health at the time of the accident. [cite].

[@vcastillo7772]

You my dear Mr. Eugene Kim are awesome.

[@lrwprof]

In Washington, D.C., a driver who is suddenly stricken by an illness that renders it impossible for him to control the car, and which he had no reason to anticipate would occur while driving, is not chargeable with negligence. [cite].

[@lrwprof]

The court reasoned that under those facts, the defendant did not know and had no reason to think that he might become ill while driving, and that he should therefore not be held responsible for the plaintiffs’ injuries. [cite].

[@lrwprof]

But Keegan has successfully controlled his narcolepsy for the past several years with medication, and his last narcoleptic episode was over three years ago. Thus, he had no reason to think that he might suffer another narcoleptic episode on the day of the accident.

[@ewrightski]

Thank you so much!! This was so helpful

[@lrwprof]

Hi Chase, here you go (one paragraph at a time): Under Washington, D.C. law, is Defendant Matt Keegan liable for Plaintiff Amy Marino’s injuries under a theory of negligence when he suddenly lost control of his car and crashed into a tree during a narcoleptic episode, but he has successfully controlled his narcolepsy with medication for the past several years, and his last narcoleptic episode was over three years ago?

[@charlesbraithwaite5497]

Thank you very much. I needed this.

[@ramonaji08]

great video, clear explanation, thank you!

[@lrwprof]

A court will therefore likely rule that Keegan is not chargeable with negligence.

[@curiouscollectiblesAU]

Dear Eugene, should we use "rule of law" lightly like that? Doesn't 'rule of law' simply mean that the law is above all? confused.. Great lecture anyway. should get me top marks!! **crosses fingers**

[@nickh8260]

Very helpful explanation Thanks.

[@deniskwok2697]

[@hannahpuder1844]

Very helpful video.

[@jaisaljohn1500]

Sir, great teaching but one question: the above said video was from the prospective of student point of view but will it come into effect in more professional way or lawyer who are beginners or newly pass out lawyers from college or give you more clear picture, Will its relevancy came into effect when someone who has to read 500 pages files with relevant document also with order sheet- ORIGINAL AND APPELLATE POINT OF VIEW..WANNA SHED LIGHT UOPON IT

[@tatywanacochrane9643]

Thank you soo much 🎉🎉

[@Bitchinthekitchin]

Thank you so much, Mr. Kim! You have helped me so much with this! I have been feeling so confused in class as everything is online. Watching this has simplified things enough for me to fully understand what I have unfortunately not learned in class. I start my internship next semester so I am so happy that I can now understand how to write a proper legal memo.
