Interdisciplinary Professionals After Jumping Ship
There are many lawyers who revel in the fine-tuning of documents. They are amazed at the placement of commas. They can speak for long periods of time about sentence structure and word choice. I am not one of them. Don't take me wrong. I love drafting. I booked Legal Drafting in law school. I even like to edit. I like to have precision in my language and I can understand wanting a high level of precision in a uniform law. But as a spectator sport? How much of this can one take?
