WEBINAR DESCRIPTION
What you need to know BEFORE you sign the contract and how to mitigate them during the performance of the contract. Often contractors are asked to sign one sided contracts that contain very onerous terms.  Some sign the contracts and hope for the best.  Others read and try to negotiate the contract just to have their suggested changes rejected.  This session will discuss those killer contract clauses and the legal and practical approach of how to address such clauses before you sign the contract and, after you have signed a contract with such killer clauses, how to address them during the performance of your contract. 

THIS WEBINAR IS DESIGNED TO:
  • Share what you need to know before you sign a contract
  • Inform you about legal and practical approaches of how to address killer clauses
  • How to mitigate killer clauses during the performance of your contract
