Contract drafting is a vital function at law firms and at companies. In this series of seven one-hour sessions, Ken Adams shows you how to draft contracts that express clearly the intent of the parties. The focus is not on what you say in a contract, but how you say it. He demonstrates the flaws in many standard usages and recommends alternatives that are more concise and less prone to confusion.
You’ll also learn from these sessions the significant benefits that come with efficient contract language and how you can improve contract language by automating your contract process.
Consisting of a narrated and annotated PowerPoint presentation by Ken Adams, the leading authority on contract language, these sessions explore issues addressed in detail in Ken Adams's groundbreaking book A Manual of Style for Contract Drafting.
Each session will end with a live online Q&A.
Whether you work at a law firm or a company, are a lawyer or contract manager, regardless of your level of experience, these sessions will ensure you have a comprehensive and disciplined approach to contract drafting. The curriculum, originally presented through WestLegalEd, will benefit all.
If you work regularly with contracts, these sessions (and the in-person one-day program) are a must attend!
