Ask them if they feel they know you well enough to write a positive, contentful letter. Ask if it will assist them in writing the letter if you provide additional information such as your transcript, a draft of your personal statement, a resume, or copies of papers or exams you submitted in their course. The Pre-Law Advising Office is available to assist your recommenders with writing a strong letter. There is a handout with suggestions of topics to cover that you can give to your recommenders. Your recommenders only need to send one signed original to Law Services which will send your letters of recommendation to the schools where you have submitted an application.
Some professors prefer to send their recommendations directly to the law schools.
This allows them to send out individually addressed letters of recommendation. You should inquire which process your recommender prefers. In either case, you will need to prepare properly addressed, stamped envelopes for your recommenders. With all recommendations, you will be asked if you waive the right to see the letter. Law schools tend to believe that letters are more candid when applicants waive this right.
