Contracts A to Z: Termination Clauses and Remedies
Despite the parties’ best intentions at the outset of what should be a mutually beneficial relationship, contracts can go bad. The question then becomes, what can we do at the drafting stage to prepare for the potential that a contractual relationship might sour? The answer lies in drafting agreements that are realistic and flexible and that contain clearly defined and appropriate termination clauses and remedy provisions.

Contracts A to Z: Using AI to Draft and Review Contracts
We have all heard about the power and the dangers of using artificial intelligence for legal work. But how do those principles apply when reviewing a proposed contract? How about when creating a first draft for internal use? There are many iterations of contract drafting and review and utilizing an AI-powered tool can be very beneficial to many of them, when applied properly.
