Course Description

Although most lawyers spend their careers working with contracts, the vast majority of lawyers are never taught to draft contracts in law school. (Imagine surgeons not learning the basics of surgery in medical school.)

In this course, you will develop the skills to effectively draft, review and negotiate English language contract provisions. More importantly, you will improve your ability to translate complex contract terminology into explanations easily understandable to your business colleagues.

Training Outcomes

After the course, you will be able to do the following:

  • Confidently draft professional English provisions, reducing the need to rely on templates.

  • Effectively manage the linguistic and legal complexities of Anglo-Saxon contracts.

  • Skillfully impress your business colleagues by being able to transform frustratingly complex legal terminology into business-ready instructions.

Sample Topics

  • How to identify and utilize the basic components of contract provisions to quickly assemble professional provisions.

  • How to work with the magical contract terminology that can dramatically transform your provisions (e.g. materiality, reasonableness).

  • How to efficiently navigate and review common contract sections.

Your Trainer

Your trainer for this course is Aaron M. Muhly.

Common Questions

Number of Participants

As we would like to ensure that all participants can actively participate during the course and receive sufficient feedback, we recommend a maximum of 16 participants.

Length

Your colleagues will participate in 4 hours of live workshops. As we know that some of your colleagues will need to miss sessions due to client conflicts, we will help them stay caught up by providing them free access to our self-study videos and exercises.

Format

The course utilizes a workshop format. We will spend substantial time on coaching your colleagues to analyze and improve their writing based on the course’s contract drafting principles. We minimize our presentation time so that we can maximize our time on providing substantive feedback for individual drafting needs.

IT

Your colleagues can participate in the live sessions via Zoom. They will also have access to the self-study sessions via Teachable.
