An Introduction To Commercial Contract Law And Language

Product Description

There is no commerce without contracts. Any sale of goods or services involves a contract. Some sales are so straightforward that you don't have to worry unduly about the legal aspects. Most business transactions, however, are more complicated than that & many legal pitfalls await the unwary. You may think you have made a legally binding agreement with someone but, unless the law backs you up, it may not be enforceable at all. Equally, an unguarded word
- or a moment's carelessness
- can expose you to legal liabilities you may not have anticipated. Small faults can cause very large losses.

This programme has therefore been designed to help you deal with customers or suppliers to avoid exposing your company to unintended legal risks. This seminar will explain, simply & clearly, in plain English, the fundamentals of contract law. The rules are illustrated by reference to many decided cases & to a wide range of standard sales & purchase forms.

This is a very practical programme which will help ensure that you are better equipped in the future to reach clear agreement with customers or suppliers & thereby avoid potential legal problems. It will also minimise the risk of you unintentionally committing your organisation to unforeseen liabilities, improve your performance in your current role & enhance your career prospects.
