Since 1998, Judge Painter has given 33 legal writing seminars, instructing lawyers and judges on how to make their words understandable—not only to other lawyers, but to the public. He also writes a monthly column on writing for Ohio Lawyers Weekly. That column is being reprinted by the bar associations of Columbus, Cincinnati, and Cuyahoga County, and nationwide in Lawyers Weekly USA.
