Here at Lex Sans Latin, we are passionate about learning the law. We believe the law should be taught in a manner that is engaging, stimulating, and most importantly, straightforward.

Our mantra and namesake, “Law Without Latin,” is at once a rallying call for clarity in legal education, and a rejection of the exclusionary language which often prevents ordinary people from understanding what the law says.

With our mantra in mind, we have two pursuits.

Con Law, Chronologically

First, Lex Sans Latin is undertaking an exciting and unprecedented initiative in the study and presentation of constitutional law: Con Law, Chronologically.

It is our mission to analyze every United States Supreme Court decision, in chronological order.

Rather than churning out case briefs that miss the point, reciting trite statistics, or offering scattered headnotes, Lex Sans Latin is determined to breathe life into decisions and tear down the linguistic barriers keeping the ordinary person from understanding what the Supreme Court is really saying, and why it matters.

Con Law, Chronologically is for every person who is interested in learning more about the law. No legal training required.

We also believe practicing attorneys and law students alike can benefit from studying the law beyond the limited selection of “landmark” cases curated and canonized in casebooks for well over a century.

Critically, Lex Sans Latin pledges NEVER to use generative artificial intelligence in the preparation of Con Law, Chronologically. This important initiative is and will always be compiled exclusively by human hands. In other words, every post in our Con Law, Chronologically series is written by founder Johnathan J. Azar, save for cited excerpts written by other humans.

Private, Virtual Tutoring For Law Students and Incoming Law Students

Second, we offer private tutoring for law students and for undergraduate students who are interested in getting a leg up before law school. All of our instruction centers around law school exam-readiness.

We offer tutoring in substantive doctrinal topics including but not limited to Contracts, Torts, Property, and Criminal Law. At the same time we cover doctrine, we emphasize IRAC structure, exam techniques, and study tips. We also provide live practice and take-home hypothetical problems so students are equipped to feel head and shoulders above their competition on test day.

Students work with Johnathan J. Azar, a former employment litigation attorney with proven ability instructing students in the law. Read more about him, including feedback submitted by his former students, here.
