About the Webinar

Time constraints and client pressure can sometimes combine to create a perfect storm, resulting in the parties taking short cuts in contracting. However, informal contractual arrangements come with significant risks. This session shines a spotlight on the various documents that appear contractual but may not necessarily substitute for a formal contract, and how to best manage the risks, including:

  • Understanding time constraints is not a reason to take short cuts in contracting
  • Limitations of heads of agreement and memorandum of understanding
  • Use of letter of intent and understanding – is this a good idea?
  • Practical risks with partial authorizations or interim agreed terms
  • What to recognize in incomplete contract terms
  • Essential terms in a completed formal construction contract
  • Risk allocation – differences between formal and informal contracting
