TOPIC: Bulletproofing Your Deals 2010: Lessons from The Litigation Battlefield on Commercial Contract Clauses
This presentation provides in-house counsel with practical information to avoid the drafting pitfalls that both lead to litigation and then make litigation much more expensive. The presentation includes a review of highlights and recent developments in the law. In addition, Robinson & Cole attorneys Bradford Babbitt and William Egan deliver practical advice and drafting tips based on actual litigation and trial experience. Attendees will receive useful takeaways, including numerous sample clauses that address the problem areas discussed during the presentation. The presentation covers the following areas:
• Arbitration clauses
• Indemnification clauses
• Ipso Facto Clauses
• Forum/Venue Selection Clauses
• Limitations on Liability
• Warranty Disclaimers
• Survival Clauses
