Plain Legal Writing: Do It - Paperback

by Wayne Schiess (Author)

Sometimes, lawyers write for other lawyers: supervisors, judges, opposing counsel, and more. But sometimes lawyers write for nonlawyers, preparing advice letters, home mortgages, credit-card agreements, divorce decrees, liability waivers. If you write legal content for nonlawyers, this book is for you. It shows you, step by step, how to produce plain-English documents, and it's particularly useful if you're working from a form or template written in traditional legalese.
