How the In Plain English® Documentation System Works

In Plain English® uses a unique system to document our work. Lawyers and other benefit plan and human resource advisors recognize this system and feel comfortable reviewing documents we write.

The In Plain English® system is very simple to understand and use. In Plain English® gives each original document, interview, or other source an alphabetical code letter, then we record the page number and paragraph number of the source information.

 

Example:

If the source of information for a particular statement we make in our draft of a document comes from the third paragraph of page 28 of the Pension plan document, then following our interpretation of that information, the notation "P.28.3" will appear in the left-hand margin or immediately following the paragraph.
