At a time of great uncertainty, it has never been more important to understand your rights to terminate contracts, whether those be client contracts, supplier contracts or joint ventures, and to understand your rights in the event that the other party should terminate. Termination provisions within contracts are rarely well drafted, and often forgotten. This seminar will explore the potential pitfalls in exercising termination rights, the contractual clauses that can be exploited to your advantage, and when common law can step in to fill the void. No one likes to enter into a contract expecting the worst, but all contracts come to an end, and we can give you the tools to prepare for all eventualities.
