Legal content · Ghostwriting · 24 books

Words for the legal trade. Books with my name on them — and a few with yours.

I'm Ty McDuffey: J.D., former Montana newspaper editor, and full-time writer. I've filed more than 3,000 plain-English legal articles for LegalMatch and Thomson Reuters FindLaw, published 24 books through my own imprint, and I ghostwrite for lawyers and founders who have a book in them but no time to write it.
