There is a disturbing trend of young lawyers trying to be concise.
A 2nd-year drafted an executive summary for a banking client using bullet points and plain English.
She proudly stated that she reduced a 50-page compliance memo into a 2-page brief.
I asked her if she thought the client was paying $950 an hour for brevity.
She muttered something about respecting the CEO's time.
I explained that clients don't pay us to solve their problems quickly.
They pay us to make their problems look so incomprehensible that only we can solve them.
I made her rewrite the summary using dense, impenetrable legalese.
It took her 12 hours to bury the conclusion on page 42.
The client called me the next morning to thank us for our incredibly thorough analysis.
Clarity is a customer service concept.
We are in the business of intellectual intimidation.

Out of the 120 men, the court only convicted 28, of which 2 were handed prison sentences, while the rest were given suspended sentences or probation. The husband only gets 4 years for drugging her, abusing her and sex trafficking her for years. This is the world for women
David Maraga: Fellow Kenyans, this is my personal pledge to you. I will not steal from you. I will not allow my family or friends to steal from you... If we succeed in confronting impunity and recovering stolen assets, we will reduce the cost of living.

Fun fact. For the 1966 World Cup, England debated denying visas for North Korea. FIFA responded that if any players from any teams were denied visas,they would relocate the World Cup, even at the last minute.
