Lunch-and-Learn

Robinson Bradshaw
Wednesday, January 24, 2024

Corporate attorney Elizabeth Tedford and litigator Jonathan Krisko of Robinson Bradshaw will join forces with WakeMed’s Interim Chief Legal Officer Brian Lynde to review the lifecycle of a commercial contract, from drafting and negotiation considerations, through performance and potential later disputes. They will highlight key contractual provisions that can better protect you should a future dispute occur; identify the kinds of deal terms that are frequently ambiguous and give rise to disputes; and discuss how different dispute resolution mechanisms, which often are not the focus of contract negotiations, can impact the ultimate outcome of a commercial dispute.
