All
transactional attorneys are faced with the task of
negotiating, drafting and interpreting contracts. As a result
it is important that an attorney be familiar with certain key
provisions in most transactional documents, including
representations and warranties, conditions to closing and
certain provisions in the “General Clauses” or “Miscellaneous
Clauses” section of the transactional document. You will learn
why certain provisions are included in different types of
general contracts, M&A documents, and SEC documents as
well as drafting standards and have the opportunity to work
with drafting, interpreting and negotiating various document
provisions
