It introduces the basic elements of all contracts; describes the lawyer's role in the drafting and negotiating process; discusses amendments, waivers, and consents; and addresses issues that arise in reviewing contracts, including due diligence issues. It also offers sample provisions, drafting checklists, and an expansive glossary of contract language and basic transactional practice. * Shows the writer how to draft clear, precise, and customized contracts that leave no room for dispute. * Teaches the writer how to avoid common drafting errors, troublemaking contract terms, and dangerous provision omissions. * Helps the writer amend, review, and interpret contracts after signing.
