Let a Harvard Law graduate with over 20 years of legal experience as a practicing attorney edit your legal or regular document. In addition to my litigation experience, I've been a professional editor for over three years with wonderful client feedback. Why not see what my "legal eagle" eyes can do for your document!
Whatever you want your document to do, your words need to be:
Correct
Clear
Concise
Consistent
Convincing
What better way to make certain your document will meet these Four "C"s than to have a true legal pro -- a Harvard Law graduate-turned-professional editor --give it that all important second eye? I will:
1) Review your document word-for-word checking grammar, spelling and punctuation.
2) Look at it stylistically, making suggestions on fixing any awkward sentences, eliminating repetitious words, and trimming unnecessary words to make your writing more smooth and effective.
3) Examine the overall organization to see if you might want to consider moving any sentences or paragraphs.
4) Point out (if appropriate) any content areas that may be confusing to a reader or that may benefit from expansion.
While legal documents (including pleadings, briefs and memoranda) are always a pleasure, I’ve edited hundreds of others including books, dissertations, theses, admissions essays, articles, webcopy, correspondence – even recipes and poetry. I especially welcome those for whom English is a second language.
Check out my reasonable rates and fast turnaround times and give your document that extra polish it needs to be its best!
