Key and Emerging Risk Allocation Clauses in Construction – What Works, What Might Not and how to Try to Tell the Difference

With new and divergent risks emerging constantly, taking stock of how risk is often managed through construction contracts. From strict notice requirements, to indemnification provisions, pay-when-paid (or pay-if-paid) clauses, contract equivalency provisions, termination for convenience clauses, “no damages” clauses, liquidated damages clauses, insurance provisions and deficiency/warranty holdbacks, we will discuss in this seminar clauses that are increasingly being used (for better or for worse depending on your perspective) to allocate construction risk. We will also comment developments in how many of these clauses have been treated in our Courts.

This Webinar is part of a series in which we offer free 1 hour seminars every Tuesday morning, from 8:30 – 9:30 am, on a variety of timely issues and topics. Our goal is to provide focused and practical information, and to conclude each session on the hour with additional time then set aside for questions and discussion for those that want to stay behind. We hope to see you there!
