Drafting is the process of preparing a contract clearly stating all the terms and such contract should contain all the essentials of an agreement enforceable at law. It is a critical process which includes what situations the contract must cover. One should prepare more than one draft so that it becomes easy to review and revise it. It is advised to use simple, clear and formal language while drafting and avoid using technical terms unnecessarily. Every clause should specify one particular area and should not overlap with other. Revising the contract is important as it removes the flaws and improves the transitions, grammar, punctuation and sentence structuring. While drafting one should check on—

  • Accuracy – statement of content accurately, free from ambiguity.

  • Readability – clearly structured, concise and removal of unnecessary modifiers.

  • Style – consistency of the paragraphs and sentences.
