Go take a course at your at a college, alot of colleges offer business writing courses, etc... Or even a local tech prep school may offer free courses. Even a local employment office would probably offer courses.

First, be sure to use spell check.  Find out if there are any learning centers in your area.  Once you've written a piece, take it apart, sentence by sentence.  Make a checklist for yourself:  Correct Spelling, Correct Grammar, Ties Into Main Topic, etc. and then go through the paper, sentence by sentence and make sure each sentence meets the criteria.  There are a million resources out there, if you are willing to try them.  Start by consulting a teacher or going to a learning center.  Last but not least, the best way to improve your writing skills is to write and write often.  Anytime you have a story in your head, write it down.  Practice makes perfect.

THE POWER COURSE is a course in business writing. Few people enjoy English courses, but the guy who can write has a skill everybody wants. You'll see when you get into the workforce. If you don't have a complete command of the language, there are a million things they won't let you get involved in. They might even replace you. My advice is even if you don't like English courses, find one that stresses writing and make yourself take at least two of these courses. You'll be glad you did.

Advanced writing skills are not going to hop off the page and jump into your brain.  The responses above are good advice, get it at school.\n\nStudying independently may help you with the mechanics, but you need to BE writing to learn writing.  You need somebody who is knowledgeable to read your papers and edit them for mechanics, style, content and MLA rules.  Otherwise, it would be like trying to learn ballroom dancing by watching TV and not practicing.\n\n1st, get a writing manual by Diana Hacker\n2nd, enroll in class or recruit an English teacher.\n\nI am an advocate of local community colleges.  You can get all the classes you need for as little as $150 per class per semester.  It's also possible to just recruit one of the teachers there to edit your work without having to go to class.  We find it very satisfying to have somebody who actually WANTS to write and exerts the effort to learn.\n\nYou can go to my site and read my essays on writing.\n\nhttp://www.geocities.com/scientific_arts_of_monroeville/essays/essays.html

Make a big deal out of your legal research and writing skills.  Chances are that's what you'll be doing 90% of the time.  Talk about how good you are at research, projects you have done well on, things you have written in the past.

Write in complete sentences , and whole paragraphs with correct punctuation and spelling. Study the writings of authors you admire, determine what you like about the structure(grammar and syntax) of their sentences and paragraphs and imitate them.\n\nStudy the dictionary everyday, learning and using new words to express your ideas. Words have multiple meanings and uses and learning this will help you select the ones that fit your frame of mind and purpose. Don't be afraid to use a good encyclopedia. Good writers are usually well-informed and good learners.\n\nDiscuss your writing with someone who likes to write, possibly a teacher-mentor-critic. Accept criticism and suggestions at first even if you later conclude your ways are preferable.\n\nWrite , write, and write until it is as comfortable as communicating by speech. \n\nPlay with expressing your thoughts in different words in different sentences and enjoy the freedom to write out what is on your mind limited only by your ingenuity and determination.\n\nThanks for the question, answering it helped me to organize my own rules for improving my writing skills.

I've read this somewhere but can't remember where.  First write, write and write some more.  Have enough to show that you CAN actually write.  Contact local papers etc. to find out if they have a need or opening and then take off!  Don't think there's a whole lot of technicalities.  You just do it.  Best wishes...

Take the time to get another application and carefully take the time filling it out.   Practice on a blank piece of paper if you have to!    I have to hire a lot of people in my field and if they can't even write legibly, then they don't even get a second look.   Not everything is done with a computer.   Handwriting is still vital for a lot of business application, especially sales where you may have to write a personal note to another sales person, your supervisor or a customer!    Good luck

Read a lot. This is how you develop an "ear" for what sounds right. One of the best little books for learning good writing is "Elements of Style" by Strunk and White.\n\nI notice that some people who answered your question didn't bother with capitalization and punctuation. Not a good practice for developing writing skills.
