Ready to build high-performing legal documents in practice?

Building usable, trustworthy legal documents isnโ€™t about talent or tools.
Itโ€™s a professional skill; one that can be learned, practiced, and applied to real work.

In the Contract & Legal Design Practitioner Certification, in-house lawyers and legal teams learn how to:

  • redesign real contracts and legal documents they already work with

  • apply legal design, usability, and plain-language principles deliberately

  • turn legal expertise into documents that support decisions, collaboration, and trust

If you want to move beyond ideas and build applied legal design capability, you can learn more about the program.
