Contract disputes and how to avoid them

Webinar Friday 21st July

As a key account manager, you may not write the customer contract, but you will have to work and live with it. So shouldn’t you be involved in drafting it?

Do you really appreciate how contracts work? How often do you find yourself head-to-head with Legal? As an important stakeholder in the drafting and delivery of the contract, wouldn’t a better understanding make the whole process and the subsequent relationship run more smoothly?

Jeremy Newton,Director at specialist law firm Codified Legal
