A quick definition of Legal Writing Institute:

The Legal Writing Institute is a group of teachers who teach people how to write legal documents. They want to make sure that people who write legal documents do it well. They do this by doing research, having meetings, and publishing a journal. They also have a way for teachers to talk to each other online. The Legal Writing Institute is also called LWI.

A more thorough explanation:

The Legal Writing Institute (LWI) is a nonprofit organization that was established in 1984 to promote the exchange of information and ideas about the teaching of legal writing. It is mainly composed of legal-writing teachers at American law schools. The LWI aims to improve the teaching of legal writing through research and scholarship, a biennial conference, an annual survey of legal-writing programs, an active listserv, and publications that include a journal called Legal Writing.

Legal wrong refers to an action that violates the law or infringes on someone's legal rights. For example, stealing someone's property is a legal wrong because it is against the law and violates the owner's right to possess their property.

Legare is a Latin term used in Roman law. It means to bequeath one or more specified items to someone other than an heir, or to make such a bequest to an heir in advance of the estate's division between the heirs. For instance, if a person writes a will and leaves their car to their friend instead of their children, they are legating the car to their friend.
