On November 14, Cooley Law School’s Kimble Center for Legal Drafting hosted a webinar that drew viewers from Poland, Nigeria, Canada, the UK, and the US. The webinar—“Clear Legal Writing: New Resources, Technology, and Cases”—focused on various aspects of legal writing in plain language. It was cosponsored by Clarity, an international organization devoted to clear legal writing.
Professor Emeritus Joseph Kimble shared details about his new (free) online book, Essentials for Drafting Clear Legal Rules, coauthored with Bryan Garner.
Ivy B. Grey, Chief Strategy & Growth Officer of WordRake editing software, discussed how properly using writing technology can reinforce substantive legal writing skills and make it easier to revise and reorganize text.
Professor Mark Cooney spresented his research on cases in which courts have refused to enforce legal documents that were difficult to understand because of legalese and poor design.
