Lawyers use their writing skills to craft complex agreements and documents that champion client objectives in and out of court. Lawyers often start a complex document with a previously used form or a boilerplate form and marshal standard clauses to timely complete the transaction. Although forms and standard clauses facilitate a transaction, the document may not fit the current fact pattern, lack clarity or use improper or even conflicting definitions. A second, fresh pair of eyes, preferably an eagle eye, on any draft document is a prerequisite to its final form.

Microsystems, a developer of software designed to improve document content quality and formatting, makes EagleEye software that checks agreements for conflicting and inconsistent definitions, vague meaning and editing mistakes. EagleEye is developed on Open XML and works on document formats (docx, doc, rtf, etc.++) in Microsoft Corp.’s Word 2007, 2010 and 2013.
