About The Book
This update of Howard Darmstadter's witty, accessible guide to legal drafting reminds practitioners how best to choose their words, to compose clear and succinct sentences, to lay out their documents, and decide which documents best serve a given scenario. The award-winning columnist for Business Law Today, offers a lively collection of his own musings, reflections, suggestions, anecdotes, and witticisms that will entertain you as it teaches you how to modernize your legal documents. Written by a business lawyer for business lawyers, this enjoyable guide covers the basics of legal drafting as well as specific types of documents, such as agreements, securities prospectuses, and promissory notes. It also addresses the use of boilerplate, examples, and mathematical formulas.
Unique among drafting manuals, Hereof, Thereof, and Everywhereof includes a chapter on formatting a document-how good choices for typeface and size, line length, and paragraphing can enhance document readability.
This book may be unconventional, but it is a vital element of any lawyer's library.
