Join us to strengthen your interpretative skills and discuss how to draft contracts that say what you mean—and mean what they say.
Contracts form the bedrock of commercial relationships, but even the most carefully negotiated agreements can become battlegrounds when a dispute arises. The difference between success and failure often hinges on a single question: what does the contract really mean?
In our next "Disputes Essentials" session, our panel of legal experts will explore the practical side of contract interpretation, look at how the courts’ approach has changed over time, and share practical tips on how you can reduce the risk of disputes. We will explore:
- The courts' modern approach to contractual interpretation and recent shifts in judicial thinking;
- What evidence can (and cannot) be put before the court to support your interpretation;
- What to do when your contract doesn't say what you thought it did; and
- Best practice drafting techniques to minimise ambiguity and avoid costly disputes.
These events are for in-house lawyers, barristers, accountants, insolvency practitioners, project managers/directors and investigators.
