contract due now

For this assignment, you’ll be given a real-world scenario from which you’ll have to draft a third-party contract.  Again, this is the sort of task you might actually do at a law firm.

Real-World ScenarioYour attorney has asked you to draft a Notice of Assignment and Assignment of a lease dated July 15, 2013, between Harry Crawford, landlord, and Lyle Morgan, tenant.

Lyle wants to assign his rights to Molly Riley.  The assignment is for the property located at 11863 Main Avenue, Hartford, Connecticut, and is effective the date the assignment is drafted.  Lyle is our client and wants to be relieved of any obligation.

Draft both the Notice of Assignment and the Assignment.  Be sure to use the general contractual agreements and the characteristics of effective legal writing.
