Sarah Fox

Sarah Fox is a lawyer who is an expert in writing contracts in just 500 words.

Having spent years training people on complex contracts, she realised they were simply shoved in a drawer and nobody cared. So she’s leading a one-woman revolution for contracts that you can read, understand and use, whatever your line of business. Frankly, as no-one takes her seriously, she has had to write books to prove it actually can be done.
