How to Read a Contract

Abstract

The thesis of this Article is that 1) we don't read contracts because we don't know how to read a contract, 2) we don't know how to read a contract because we haven't been taught to read a contract, and 3) we can be taught to read a contract. Starting from the premise that contract reading is unlike other reading and requires its own protocols, this Article uses a "think aloud" process to break contract reading down into logical and orderly steps. By following these steps, the reader will confidently—and perhaps even pleasurably—undertake what was previously a daunting task.
