Law Firms Editing and Proofreading Services
A law firm sells precision. That makes the firm's own writing a peculiar liability: a typo in a pitch document, a mangled sentence in a partner biography, or an inconsistent house style across a proposal quietly contradicts the thing you are asking clients to pay for. General counsel notice, and some of them keep score.
We edit the material firms produce about themselves — RFP and pitch responses, capability statements, directory and awards submissions, client alerts and legal updates, newsletters, website practice pages and lawyer biographies, seminar and CLE materials, engagement letters, and internal precedents and style guides. Our editors apply your house style consistently across documents written by twenty different hands, which is usually the real problem rather than any single error.
Directory submissions and RFPs are worth special care because they are read comparatively. When yours sits beside four competitors' documents, the one that is clear, specific, and free of jargon reads as the more capable firm — often regardless of the underlying credentials.
Everything is treated confidentially, including client names in pitch materials. We can also build you a house style sheet, so the next fifty documents start out consistent instead of being corrected afterwards.
