A: For purposes of some claim of breach, it doesn't matter who drafted the contract. Either party may state a claim that a breach occurred. Where who drafted the contract comes into play is when there is some ambiguity in the language that substantiates the breach; when the contract is ambiguous, judges often hold the ambiguous language against the drafter under the theory that the drafter should have been more clear.
