Benefits

Commercial contracts have become increasingly complex in our litigious society. Why can't contracts just be written in plain language with the common words (and sentence structures) we use in everyday conversation? The truth is - they can! This teleconference is an introductory course on drafting clear and enforceable contracts in a business environment - using language that everyone can understand. It will cover the critical details that need to be in every contract and the language that can be used to simply express these details to achieve the legal result desired by both parties. It also will provide you with an appreciation of how what is included (and what is omitted) in a commercial contract affects how the contract will be interpreted should a dispute arise. This teleconference will provide helpful insights, best practices and tricks of the trade in current use by both purchasers and vendors. It will also cover current trends in the marketplace with respect to the contracting process and documentation of commercial agreements at Fortune 500 companies.
