Comic contracts and other ways to make the law understandable

UWA Law School

Research output: Contribution to specialist publication › Article in specialist publication

Abstract

Considering how swamped we all are with agreements and terms, from the workplace to just downloading apps, we need to change the way the information regulating our legal relationships is presented, as well as the level of other detail it contains. Pointlessly complex contracts have to stop. This is why some lawyers are rethinking contract design, using mind maps, illustrations and even contracts in comic strip form, which is the focus of my research
