Charles R. Calleros

Charles Calleros is a professor of law at the Sandra Day O’Connor College of Law at Arizona State University in Tempe, Arizona, where he has taught Legal Method and Writing, Advanced Writing Seminar, Contracts, International Contracts, Civil Rights Legislation, Torts, and Civil Clinic. He has taught Contract Law as a visiting professor at Stanford Law School and Santa Clara University School of Law, and he has taught courses in introductory common law legal method at the University of Paris and the Zhongnan University of Economics and Law in Wuhan, China.

Following graduation from the U.C. Davis School of Law in 1978, Professor Calleros clerked for the Office of Central Staff Attorneys for the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit. He credits his mentors there with stimulating his fascination for legal writing, prompting his request to be assigned to teach in the legal writing curriculum when he entered teaching after completing his term as a Central Staff Attorney and then clerking for Ninth Circuit Judge Procter Hug, Jr.

Soon after joining the faculty at A.S.U. in 1981, Professor Calleros began directing writing programs at Phoenix law firms, providing him with concentrated exposure to written advocacy and transactional work. This experience, combined with his clerking with the Court of Appeals and with his teaching of both Contracts and Legal Writing, provided him with a rich combination of perspectives and bases of knowledge that formed the foundation for his textbook, Legal Method and Writing.
