Legal drafting: the drafter must understand it
A commenter writes--
- I have seen many instances of lawyers using boilerplate language that they could not explain--that they did not understand. I consider this malpractice in drafting.
- If you don't understand a form provision--or don't understand why it should be included in your document--try diligently to gain that understanding. If you still can't understand it, cut it.
