I have just drafted a contract document using the word "accordingly" 6 time on the first page

It certainly brightened an otherwise boring document for me

your last accordingly should be something like "accorded", not an adverb, to stay in accordment with standard english grammar. changes should be made accordingly[/grammar alert]

Furthermore, your use of the word 'to' is incorrect. I suggest replacing it with the like-sounding 'too', meaning in abundance instead of the original meaning of in addition.

no, it is correct usage. Try this rewrite of the same sentance, split into two instead of using commas:

make more sense?
