I need to send a contract to outside counsel for advice, but it includes client names and sensitive identifiers. I am the only person who can prepare the redacted version before noon.

Recommend exactly what to remove versus what to retain for counsel to advise properly, and the one sentence to explain the redaction choices to the partner receiving it.
