SATO – Legal design of Code of Ethics

With legal design, we can make the law more understandable and user-centric together.

Through legal design, we create better and user-friendly legal documents and services for our clients, reducing unnecessary legal jargon and the possibility of misinterpretation. We offer a creative and interdisciplinary project, resulting in re-designed legal documents and services.

We carry out legal drafting projects in an interdisciplinary team consisting of our experts within legal design, linguistics, graphic design and business law. We apply design thinking and an iterative working model to ensure that the final product meets the real needs of our clients. We identify the needs of the client as well as the scope of the project, and deliver a finished product at the end of the project, designed directly according to the client’s graphic guidelines or other requirements.

We can help you with:

• Legal design projects: we will design your company’s contracts, guidelines and other legal documents either in document format or, alternatively, in an interactive format for your website.
• Training and workshops: we offer legal design training and workshops to introduce you to design thinking in legal professional work, apply design methods in practice and develop your organisation’s own services to make them more user-centric.
• Depending on your needs, you can choose either a standalone design project or a training course or workshop, or a full package, consisting of a design project and training course or workshop.

Examples of the work we do:

• We developed a formulated code of ethics for company employees (code of conduct) and business partners (supplier code of conduct). 
• We designed an interactive prototype of the client’s terms and conditions to be published on the client’s website.
• We drafted the terms of use and the privacy policy for a service provided by the company.
• We drafted a formulated contract of employment and a confidentiality agreement.
• We drafted an insider information training course for employees of a listed company.
