Description

LawPay's Director of Education, Claude E. Ducloux, presents a 30-minute power point covering the dangers of using “my old form” for standard contract provisions, without reviewing and tailoring each clause for clear understanding by all parties and attorneys.  We’ll cover examples of typical “miscellaneous” clauses, and caselaw and precedent demonstrating how they can dangerously result in unintended consequences; We will discuss typical types of contract which usually contain miscellaneous clauses to always review and strike or upgrade; the need for clarity, breadth, and insidious danger of “waivers.”
