University of Michigan Law School: Prospective Students
It definitely won’t hurt you – we won’t attribute your professor’s relative lack of English ability to you! – but it simply won’t be a weight in your favor. If we have trouble understanding the letter, we will most likely simply ignore it. So long as you have one strong letter of recommendation from someone who is able to communicate easily in English, you need not be concerned.

How do I write a letter of recommendation?

Frequently Asked Questions of the OWL Tutors
First, feel free to have a person "coach" you when she or he asks for a letter of reference. Ask that person what specific skills and abilities you should describe in your letter. You could ask for a copy of that person's resume or vita as well. Such a document can offer good reminders about a person's background. If the person seeking a reference is asking you to write a letter to a specific potential employer, ask what experience and abilities that employer is seeking in a candidate.
