> contracts meant for other lawyers who speak "Legalese English" That's a misconception. Contracts are supposed to be drafted so that non-lawyers can readily understand and follow them (and so that, when necessary, ordinary-citizen jurors can understand and enforce them). It's certainly true that some lawyers like to use legalese mumbo-jumbo. Maybe they want to make themselves look important. Or justify the hours they bill. Maybe they're terrified of deviating from what's been done before. But good lawyers aren't that way.
