Legal Drafting - A How to Guide

Drafting - A How to Guide is for those who wish to learn how to draft effectively.

Chapter 1 is devoted to general principles which are relevant to all legal drafting. Each subsequent chapter deals with a specific area and contains an explanation of the applicable legal principles and then relates those to specific drafting issues. Examples of drafting to achieve particular outcomes are also illustrated.

The authors have paid special attention to language, and a plain English flavour is used throughout the book.
