Abstract

I appreciate the opportunity to write to lawyers about the ethics of plain language from a technical-communication perspective. I am a professor of technical communication and, formerly, a full-time technical writer. In this article, I’ll view the ethics of plain language through the lens of the literature on ethics in the field of technical communication.
