Webcasts
Ken Adams is offering through West LegalEdcenter a series of seven hour-long webcasts entitled Drafting Clearer Contracts.
Five of the webcasts explore topics discussed in his book A Manual of Style for Contract Drafting and consist of annotated PowerPoint presentations plus crystal-clear audio. The remaining sixth and seventh webcasts consist of conversations with others, with an accompanying PowerPoint presentation. The sixth is on the benefits of clarity and how to effect change; the seventh, which is free of charge, is on contract automation. Here’s the complete list, with links to the relevant West LegalEdcenter page:
- The Front and Back of the Contract
- Categories of Contract Language
- Defined Terms; Ambiguity
- Select Words and Phrases
- Drafting as Writing; Layout and Typography
- The Benefits of Clarity; Effecting Change
- Automating the Contract Process
Each webcast is available for download on demand. Individuals can register and pay with a credit card the US$99 per-webcast price for the first six webcasts. If five or more people in your organization would like to watch a webcast as a group, discounts are available; please email the sales department of West LegalEdcenter to find out more. Contact them too if you’d like to find out about subscribing to West LegalEdcenter—your subscription would include my webcasts.
