Leveraging Legal Knowledge During Contract Negotiations
Legal concepts and issues associated with negotiating contracts will be presented. Negotiation experts will share, discuss and demonstrate how to better understand key legal concepts and the legal consequences if alterations and amendments are made to "standard" language. The session will focus on contract provisions relating to insurance, labor issues, confidentiality clauses, renovations, change in management or ownership, indemnity, reciprocity, damages/penalties, choice of law, and various other key provisions, as well as how to reduce the potential loss associated with signing a "risky" event contract.

After attending this session, you will be able to:

  • Apply advanced negotiations skills to complex contract provisions.
  • Recognize the benefits of enhanced knowledge of critical legal concepts related to contracts.
  • Identify the impact of modifications on the critical provisions of contracts.

You won't want to miss this event as the speaker and topic are part of MPI’s Platinum Program Series.
