Abstract

Drafting is a type of legal writing that reduces to writing clients' desires regarding legally significant transactions or events - for example, wills, contracts, pleadings, and statutes. As drafters, lawyers not only litigate, but they also seek to avoid litigation. In litigation practice, they draft pleadings, Motions, interrogatories, jury instructions, settlement agreements, and orders, among other documents. In practice that seeks to avoid litigation, they draft contracts, public and private legislation, wills, trusts, and other documents. In an ordinary office practice, a lawyer is likely in the space of a month or a year to draft everything from a purchase and sale agreement to a lease with a purchase option or he/she can also draft bylaws of a corporation, or draft a proposed ordinance.
