Settlement Agreement
Paralegals’ legal writing skills are used in the drafting of legal documents not only in the pretrial phase of discovery but also in negotiating and settling claims between parties outside of court. In this exercise, you’ll be drafting a settlement agreement to be served on the defendants and their opposing counsel for their consideration and, hopefully, signature.
Week 5 Task
