Wrapping Up the UK & Ireland Series of “Drafting Clearer Contracts: Masterclass”

Posted on March 8, 2021 by Ken Adams

Last week I oversaw session 8—the final session—of the series of Drafting Clearer Contracts: Masterclass intended for the UK and Ireland. A couple of days later most of the group then gathered for a celebratory Zoom session—a nice idea. That’s when I took the screenshot above. No More Series Limited by Country I don’t think […]

The Return of “Drafting Clearer Contracts” Presentations

Posted on December 28, 2020 by Ken Adams

At the onset of the pandemic, I declined the opportunity to do an online version of my in-person Drafting Clearer Contracts seminar. But over time, we’ve all gotten used to Zoom. Yes, in-person presentations are more fun, and it’s easier for participants to engage. On the other hand, doing presentations remotely offers compelling efficiencies. And […]

Posted on November 24, 2020 by Ken Adams

The series of Drafting Clearer Contracts: Masterclass that’s set to start on Tuesday, 12 January 2021, at 7:00 am Eastern Time (US and Canada) is now open to everyone, not just people in Asia and the Middle East. Given that Asia and the Middle East encompasses a whole bunch of cultures, it seemed silly to […]

Government Discount for “Drafting Clearer Contracts: Masterclass”!

Posted on September 25, 2020 by Ken Adams

I love me some effective government services. For example, I recall how a few years ago I realized at midnight one night that I needed to get a new passport for my grand seminar tour of Asia. My flight for Tokyo was leaving early evening the next day. Thanks to the passport office on Houston […]

Masterclass: Some Early Feedback

Posted on September 25, 2020 by Ken Adams

This past week I wrapped up the first three series (apart from trial series) of my new online course Drafting Clearer Contracts: Masterclass. On thing that’s clear is that for many people, pandemic life is hectic. I ended up moving several people to a later series because of some crisis or other. And plenty of […]

Two October 2020 Series of “Drafting Clearer Contracts: Masterclass”!

Posted on September 1, 2020 by Ken Adams

I’m getting the hang of Drafting Clearer Contracts: Masterclass. I’m no Zoom maestro, but I’ve sorted out my two-device setup (so I can annotate my PowerPoint presentation while keeping an eye on things), and it’s been a while since I screwed things up. And my ring light shows my ravaged mug to great effect! I’m […]

Why Contract Managers?

Posted on August 26, 2020 by Ken Adams

In today’s post about nonlawyers and contract drafting (here), I offer contract managers a discount on my new online course Drafting Clearer Contracts: Masterclass. Why contract managers? Why not other nonlawyer constituencies? One reason is that contract managers might be the biggest, most homogenous nonlawyer bloc working with contracts. But mainly it’s because I’ve long […]

Nonlawyers Can Help With Contract Drafting (As Long as They’re the Right Nonlawyers)

Posted on August 26, 2020 by Ken Adams

Recently I tweeted this: Legal builds contracts because lawyers are good at claiming turf. Contracts are business documents: that they're legally enforceable and contain dispute resolution provisions isn't a reason to make them a legal fiefdom. Give them to people skilled in deals and contract language. — Ken Adams (@AdamsDrafting) August 16, 2020 I’ll now […]
