Bryan Garner — the legal drafter entrusted by the U.S. Judicial Conference to redraft federal rules and by many Fortune 500 companies to streamline their contracts — has distilled the essential points of legal drafting into one quick-paced hour.

In this session you will learn:
- A quick way to add polish to your forms.
- A time tested method for ensuring sound organization.
- The “dirty dozen”—words and phrases you need to delete and replace.
- How to eliminate needless ambiguities that can spark litigation and harm both your clients and your reputation.
