I came across a very refreshing website the other day – that of law firm, Kennedys.
Here’s what they say on their homepage under a one-paragraph introduction of the firm:

It’s interesting to see these four points set out like this. Not only is the firm differentiating itself on the basis of its clear communications, they have also broken down Plain English into these four discrete aspects.
Many legal professionals think Plain English is simply ‘Clear English’. They forget the first three points.
Thanks for the reminder, Kennedys.














Really cool post. I do agree with almost everything you talked about, but not quite all of it. Let’s say I agree to disagree on a few points. Good stuff though.
