I'm a lawyer looking for a linguist/grammarian to review, for a fee to
be negotiated, parts of the manuscript of my forthcoming book ''A
Manual of Style for Contract Drafting,'' to be published by the
American Bar Association in 2004. The areas to be reviewed address
linguistics topics such as syntactic ambiguity, the semantic ambiguity
of plural nouns and ''and,'' ''or,'' ''every,'' and ''each,'' and verb
use in different contexts. I anticipate a total of 10 to 20 hours of
work during December and January.
Thanks,
Ken Adams
