KILLER CONTRACTS SEMINAR
Oct 31, 2018
|
Due to the high demand and the current industry issues occurring, we’ve changed venues to accommodate more attendees. The new location for the seminar will be Ridout Barrett’s office, located at 922 Isom Rd.
Construction contracts are increasingly drafted with complicated terms that are more harmful than they may appear, and Texas courts will enforce the dire consequences of these agreements. It's a common misconception that if a contract seems horrifically one-sided then it will not be enforceable due to it being "unfair," but that's not the case. Join Bethany & Tom as they explain the terms and contract language that create most of the legal problems, as well as give you guidance and tips on how to modify your future agreements to better protect yourself and your company.
Wednesday, October 31
9am - 12pm
