The crucial role of legal opinion in addressing issues, whether they be administrative, civil, criminal, or constitutional, must be acknowledged by every law student. A legal opinion is an instrument that society can use to resolve various kinds of legal issues. Students who are knowledgeable about legal opinion are better equipped to understand the courts and make wise choices regarding their rights and responsibilities. A qualified legal opinion eliminates issues that may lead to legal bias and connects the dots in a realistic, factual, and relevant manner. Legal opinions must strike a balance between presenting significant legal facts and applying positive law while respecting cultural norms.
