Learn what made them successful
You need to understand why the application was successful in order to effectively apply best practices to your own draft.
Every application in our database includes detailed commentary by our team of qualified lawyers.

- sets out how we would have taken it to the next level
- explains how you can apply the same best practices to your own application
