This course is also available in the 2017 Paralegal Cruise Bundle.

Paralegals play an important role in the contract review process. This presentation will briefly review various standard contractual provisions and then discuss their practical application in terms of the broader contract and the business enterprise. Rather than focusing on contract basics, such as Offer, Acceptance, and Legality of Subject matter, this program will provide a deeper discussion of considerations when reviewing contracts for either party to a business transaction. In addition attendees will be provided with ethical guidance on the paralegal’s role in reviewing contracts for an attorney’s review. During the program several “best practice” tips will be provided. As an interactive program, attendees will be invited to share their experiences and tips in this area.

• Reviews

Here are some comments from attendees of the live event:

Allen was very entertaining in his presentation, he certainly delivered, and he and he definitely “owns” his topic! Contract Review was a definite “eye opener” for me.

He is hysterical.

He was awesome.

He is a very good speaker. Clearly knows this area of law in depth and it was very helpful for me as I now work in-house and contract review is one of my responsibilities.

He was wonderful! Please invite him back!
