20% DISCOUNT for NCMA Members (Seattle Area) Contract drafting, a core activity of corporate attorneys, paralegals and contract administrators, has traditionally consisted of recycling forms of questionable quality and relevance. Workshop leader Kenneth A. Adams offers an antidote - a uniquely rigorous overview of issues relating to contract language and layout based on his book A Manual of Style for Contract Drafting. West Legalworks, the premier provider of legal education, presents Drafting Contracts - Language and Layout, A Comprehensive and Disciplined Approach to Drafting Agreements. This workshop explores what makes for clear and effective contracts. Ken uses examples throughout drawn from actual contracts, and rather than simple lecturing, he uses questions and drafting exercises to encourage participation. He also emphasizes the practical considerations unique to the drafting process. This program is a must for attorneys, paralegals and contracts administrators. Highlights of the workshop include
Click Here for an electronic brochure About the workshop leader Kenneth A. Adams is a corporate lawyer who has written widely on legal drafting. His most recent book, A Manual of Style for Contract Drafting (American Bar Association 2004), is one of the ABA's best-selling titles and will be distributed to program attendees. Ken is uniquely qualified to lead our seminars on contract drafting. He's not a spectator - he has practiced corporate law at major law firms in the U.S. and Europe. But he doesn't simply recycle the conventional wisdom instead, marrying his understanding of transactions and his knack for language, he offers advice that is rigorous, practical, and often innovative. Hear what has been said "As one who drafts, revises and negotiates all kinds of contracts, I
found the seminar's focus on the 'basics' to be as informative as it was
indispensable." " No one has done more clear and disciplined thinking about more
troublesome aspects of contract drafting than Ken Adams. . He forces you
to face, in a clear-eyed manner, the redundancies, inefficiencies,
anachronisms, inconsistencies and imprecisions that weaken contract
drafting at even the best firms." "Ken's great sense of humor made for an interesting seminar that I'll be recommending to others. Keep up the fight for clearer contracts!" -- Zandra Robinson, Contract Administrator, Dallas, TX
