Drafting Lab: build the document clause by clause

Put the sections of a legal notice, a plaint or a complaint in order, choose the right clause for each and watch the paper come together. Then sign and serve it.

Demo content: names, dates and figures are invented and the formats are simplified for teaching. It is a study aid, not legal advice. Check formats against current rules and local practice. Progress is saved in your browser only.

What this shows

Structure first

Students first put the sections in their proper order, because a document that is out of order is already weak.

Right clause, right place

Four clauses for every section. The wrong ones are the real mistakes: threats, vague facts, missing reliefs.

The paper builds as you go

Each correct clause is inked into the document, so the finished draft is something to keep and study.

Three documents

A legal notice for refund, a plaint for recovery and a complaint to the Superintendent of Police.
