You should have a sighted person review for formatting errors.  They are too
easy to miss with screen readers.

I agree with Angie.  JAWS can do just so much, and ensuring complete
accuracy on the formatting of documents for court simply requires eyesight
to be right.
In the legal profession, "You are what you write" when it comes to court
documents, and hence, your professional reputation.

My administrative assistant reviews them. I find JAWS is inconsistent about
announcing and displaying changes in attributes, so the most efficient use
of my time is for her to make sure documents I prepare are visually
acceptable.

I'm also eager to hear what others do.
