Course Overview

The cost of getting distressed contract exit wrong is rarely the judgment; it is the years spent reaching it. The commercial risk in the legal and contractual practice capability usually sits in clauses nobody reads until something fails. Participants take away a working set of documents supporting this area of legal and contractual practice, ready to be adapted internally. The course gives participants a defensible structure for distressed contract exit and the judgement to adapt it. Participants come from operational and oversight roles, and both perspectives on the legal and contractual practice discipline are used deliberately. Plans for this strand of legal and contractual practice often fail at the handover point between functions. The most reliable predictor of sound distressed contract exit is whether anyone reviews it when nothing has gone wrong. The method assumes participants will be challenged on their handling of the legal and contractual practice capability and prepares them for it. The final session converts the week's work on this area of legal and contractual practice into commitments with owners and dates.
