What is usually expected from an attorney when requesting a rough draft?

When an attorney requests a rough draft, it is generally understood that they are aiming to review and prepare efficiently. A rough draft serves as an initial, unpolished version of a transcript or document that allows the attorney to see the content and structure early on. This early access enables them to identify any key issues, make necessary revisions, and prepare adequately for any legal proceedings or related discussions. The objective is to ensure that they can address points that may require further exploration or clarification without waiting for a finalized document, thereby streamlining their preparation process.

The other options touch on aspects that might occasionally occur during a review of a rough draft, but they do not encapsulate the primary expectation of efficiency that is crucial for an attorney’s workflow during this initial stage.
