About the eBook

  • The Start of a Beautiful Relationship: Drafting Effective Memoranda of Understanding
    • The start of a commercial relationship often involves the creation of preliminary documents setting out the intentions of the parties and other matters of mutual interest. Often called MOU’s, Letters of Intent or Heads of Agreement, the document has the flexibility to be what is needed at the time. In this session you will explore the drafting options for these types of documents and the importance of both document form and substance on the relationships created and the enforceability of the agreement.
  • Promises Promises: Drafting Watertight Warranties
    • Warranties provide greater certainty for both vendor and purchaser in contracts for the provision of good, services or property. To achieve that certainty and meet the expectation of the parties, precision in drafting is essential. This session provides practitioners with a step-by-step guide to drafting watertight warranties and avoiding costly mistakes.
  • Contractual Risk Allocation Tools: Drafting Guarantees and Indemnities
    • Accepting liability, even of a limited nature, under a contract brings with it potentially onerous consequences and, as a result, precise and thorough drafting of such clauses is essential. This session provides a deep-dive into the drafting of guarantees and indemnities and associated guidance practitioners need to provide their clients.
  • Joint Venture Agreements: Documenting the Key Essentials
    • The best intentions can go awry when parties to a joint venture have not documented their arrangements accurately or comprehensively. This session will provide a roadmap to key considerations in drafting joint venture agreements.
  • A Shot Across the Bow: Drafting Restraint Clauses for Maximum Effect
    • Restraints on the employment of key personnel following departure is a common feature of many employment or sale of business contracts. However, the courts have increasingly limited the scope and reach of these clauses. This session will explore the current legal position on restraint clauses and provide a guide to effective drafting.
  • Tears Before Bedtime: Drafting Effective Early Termination Clauses
    • All contracts come to an end eventually, often by completion but also by early termination. This session will explore options for drafting effective early termination clauses in contracts.
