Legal Drafting I 7th Semester
Legal drafting is the most
important instrument of legal communication. The skill to draft well is the
skill to think and communicate well. Therefore, it is important to recognize
the purpose that a legal document has to serve. A lawyer equipped with legal drafting
skills is able to identify his target audience who is going to read the
document. The content of a legal document must be understood by the audience
who is reading it. Legal drafting skills also include the art of drafting
authentic documents rather than using template format for every contract or
notice drafted. It is important that every document drafted by a lawyer is free
of plagiarism or unverified, unauthentic content. Each statement made must be
supported by a case law, precedent or statute. This makes conducting legal
research before drafting a document, one of the skills required to draft
pristine documents.
