You probably have more contractual relationships than you realize—clients, vendors, suppliers, sub-contractors, licensing partners—the list goes on and on. Knowing how to negotiate and read contracts is one thing, but actually understanding how to leverage them to minimize potential misunderstandings and maximize your business relationships is a whole other ball game. Soundly structured contracts are the foundation for being able to focus on what you do best: running your business and serving your clients.

In this workshop, Seth Kaplowitz, a New York–based attorney who specializes in working with creative professionals, will explore strategies to optimize your suite of business contracts, enhance your working relationships to set well-documented expectations and goals, and ensure you understand all the implications of both what you are signing and what you are asking your clients to sign.

In this class, attendees will learn:

- How to structure and implement contractual relationships in order to more effectively run their business and manage expectations
- What contractual provisions are essential for their business and why, as well as understanding key words and phrases to look out for in contracts of all sorts
- What to do when confronted with partners who aren’t honoring their side of a contract, or with a claim made against you in connection with an alleged breach of contract
- How to finesse contractual provisions in light of special situations and clients

After this class, attendees will have:

- A deeper understanding of how to use contracts to their advantage, both in terms of managing expectations and ensuring desired results
- Confidence in their ability to review and draft basic contractual provisions
