Course description
2023 has brought many developments and changes to the commercial and legal operating environment. Commercial contracts which are intended to operate within that commercial and legal environment need to be changed to operate properly and to manage new risks and situations properly. New cases have updated our understanding of various areas.
Presented by Mark Weston, this virtual classroom seminar will cover what those changes are and what practical drafting changes should be made to commercial contracts as a result.
Mark has experience in both non-contentious and contentious matters in all areas of commercial law, intellectual property law, information technology law, Internet, electronic commerce and on-line services law.
