Judge: Best Plain English Legal Document category

Andrew Pegler 2018

Writer and editor, Andrew Pegler Media, Australia

Award-winning plain English editor and writer Andrew Pegler believes that sometimes words are just not enough… especially clumsy, badly written ones. He formed Andrew Pegler Media 18 years ago in the belief that everyone should have access to concise, easy-to-understand legal information. He calls this plain English, and is a loud and proud enemy of legalese.

Andrew presented at Clarity2016, the global conference on plain English held in Wellington, New Zealand. And for two consecutive years he has spoken during Victorian Law Week about plain English and the law. (Find out about Victorian Law Week here)
