A legal contract is written in a language that a lot of laypeople don't understand. It's quite helpful for a layperson if a lawyer summarizes for them what the contract does in a way that's optimized for laypeople to understand. A lawyer shouldn't simply assume that his client has the same intellectual capacity as the lawyer.
