: AdamsDraftingA Law Firm that Forbids Use of ?Shall???Addendum
By Ken Adams
In this post I described how I had heard someone cite by name some companies and one law firm?a multi-office U.S. law firm?that had foresworn use of shall. Well, recently I had the privilege of giving a series of seminars at that law firm, and I was tickled to be able to ask two senior corporate partners whether their firm had in fact issued an edict against use of shall. They were mightily puzzled by the notion.
So to reiterate, you should be very skeptical of pronouncements that such-and-such law firm or company has banned use of shall in its contracts, unless the person speaking is from that law firm or company.
