Description

Contract negotiations between owners and architects or engineers play a critical role in shaping the outcome of any construction project. This CLE program offers a hands-on exploration of how to approach these negotiations with clarity and confidence. Focusing on both legal exposure and commercial realities, participants will examine essential contract provisions and their real-world impact.

The course highlights major risk areas and unpacks the nuances of frequently contested clauses, including those addressing standard of care, indemnification, payment obligations, intellectual property and document ownership, project scope, and scheduling. Designed to equip attorneys with both strategic and practical insight, this session delivers the knowledge needed to negotiate fair, effective agreements that reduce conflict and support project success.
