Plain-language law

A quick definition of Plain-language law:

Plain-language law: This is a type of law that says companies have to write their contracts in a way that regular people can understand. Contracts are things like rental agreements, loans, and insurance policies. This law helps people know what they're agreeing to when they sign a contract.

A more thorough explanation:

Plain-language law is a type of law that requires companies to write their contracts in simple and easy-to-understand language. This means that contracts like residential leases, loan agreements, software licenses, and insurance contracts should be written in a way that regular people can understand.

  • A residential lease is an example of a contract that should be written in plain language. This is because people who rent apartments or houses need to understand the terms of their lease so they know what they are agreeing to.
  • A loan agreement is another example of a contract that should be written in plain language. People who borrow money need to understand the terms of their loan so they know how much they will have to pay back and when.
  • Software licenses are also contracts that should be written in plain language. People who use software need to understand the terms of the license so they know what they can and cannot do with the software.
  • Insurance contracts are another example of contracts that should be written in plain language. People who buy insurance need to understand what is covered and what is not covered so they can make informed decisions about their coverage.

These examples illustrate the importance of plain-language law. By requiring companies to write their contracts in simple and easy-to-understand language, people can make informed decisions about the products and services they are buying.

Anyone know how long it takes to get aid package after getting admitted to UChicago or Northwestern?
I’d ask in the t14 chat bc lol it may be a bit until you can get someone who can answer that question here

@syddak: Oof tough spot. Congrats on the As. Did either indicate either via email/mail that they would be following up with aid, and if so, did they provide a time frame? It may be acceptable to email them and indicate seat deposits are fast approaching and you are curious if you can expect further info (aid) from the school to aid u in ur decision..
