Countless cases have ended in protracted litigation as a result of sloppy drafting and incorrect terminology. This session will explore some examples of overzealous drafting and provide tips on how to say what you mean, including:
- When should you use “notwithstanding”?
- Does “for the avoidance of doubt” add anything to a clause?
- How to effectively draft carve-outs
- Is it worth including an “Entire Agreement” clause?
- What does “unless otherwise agreed” really mean?
- Beware of templates and borrowing from other agreements
- Case studies of ambiguities and drafting failures
- Tips for effective and clear terminology.
