DEProof: Linguistic Consulting Details
DEProof offers a unique service: linguistic consulting. It specializes in clear, coherent, correct, consistent, cogent English communication (the "5Cs"). High-caliber professionals and top-tier organizations rely on DEProof to ensure that their words are effectively communicated to—and have the desired effects on—their audiences. They rely in particular on DEProof's founder and director, Dimitri Phillips: educated in Boston, Oxford, Stanford, and Beijing and trained at Cravath, Swaine, and Moore LLP.DEProof consults on ad hoc linguistic issues, e.g., words to use for a particularly important phrase (such as a document title or product name) and on entire texts. "deproofing" is not editing (though typos, grammatical errors, etc. are addressed) but rather a linguistic (scientific) and highly-interactive (author–deproofer) process to clarify writing (and thinking), to harmonize words and ideas, to bring writing in line with common conventions, to apply all of the above uniformly to an entire written work, and ultimately to ensure the work achieves its objective. And DEProof does this not for fiction writers or journalists, but for lawyers, businesspeople, companies, non-profit organizations, professors, etc.—those whose words need pinpoint accuracy and specific results.In addition, DEProof offers workshops to develop or reinforce the competence of lawyers, businesspeople, etc. in writing effective English. The workshops, which can be arranged individually (approx. 2 hours each) or as a full-day training, cover topics such as: - How the 5Cs of writing are achieved first and foremost through the corresponding 5Cs of thinking. - How authors unknowingly introduce errors, ambiguities, etc. in their writing—and how to avoid doing so. - How to approach your own text from the perspective of its audience. - How to prepare and work with a document to efficiently manipulate it before, during, and after writing to ensure the appropriate form, presentation, etc.
