FAVOURITE TOOLS
Checklist Legal uses these tools to make simple legal innovations.
Automation
Automation reduces drudgery. When we automate, we think differently about legal work. Automation provides greater access to legal services.
Checklists
Checklists are simple and easy to understand. Checklists make the difficult feel achievable. This is the Checklist Legal approach to law.
Productive contracts
We are so passionate about making contracts productive, we wrote a book about it! Contracts touch us all. We make contracts readable, digital, useful, and useable.
Process mapping
Legal documents and information sit within processes - whether those processes are written down or not. Lawyers need to build skills in legal and contract process mapping.
Plain language
Most people - lawyers and non-lawyers - prefer plain language to legalese. Plain language challenges lawyers to come out from behind legalese to show the legal information clearly.
Legal visuals
Using visuals is a fast track to better understanding. Our brains love visual information. Contracts need pictures, tables, flow charts and other visual elements.
