Exciting new series on “Voice, Body and Movement for Lawyers – How to connect with the jury and find Justice Through Dramatic Technique!”
Click here to find out moreMatt Karlyn, seasoned commercial contracting attorney, and Courtney Worcester, seasoned commercial litigator, both of Foley & Lardner's Boston office, team up to talk about drafting contracts to reduce risk, limit liability, and avoid litigation. Understanding essential terms is critical. Join our presenters as they discuss how to draft contracts that say what you mean, how what you say in a contract could be interpreted, what judicial limitations are placed on key contractual provisions, and what remedies you can expect if not stated in the contract. They also examine those "boilerplate" provisions that everyone loves and how they work for or against your client or company, such as the choice of law and forum provisions, whether arbitration and mediation provisions work, the importance of integration clauses and how to properly deal with amendments and modifications to your contracts.
