Overview
Writing Contracts is not a book on style. It is a unique work that adjusts the draftsman's perspective to focus on the objective common to all agreements: accuracy expressed as simply as possible. It then presents the techniques required to achieve this result, even dealing with the ethics involved in drafting agreements. The treatment is rich with examples, so the reader is never consigned to a limbo of abstraction. Unlike most legal texts, the writing is lively to maintain interest and attention, and the text is short to avoid overloading the readers's circuits with irrelevant detail. This text is a must for law students and an important guide for practicing attorneys.Synopsis
