Effective formal and even informal documentation is essential for ensuring clarity and legally secure business relationships. This one-hour CLE seminar will focus on the critical role of clearly documenting agreements and relationships to potentially avoid litigation. Attendees will gain valuable insights into practical approaches for drafting contracts with uncertainty and concurrent litigation avoidance in mind, establishing best corporate protocols, and maintaining detailed records. Implementing these best practices may enable attendees to better mitigate risks to avoid litigation or, at a minimum, create sufficient evidence to avoid trial by quick disposition of claims.
