CONTINUING LEGAL EDUCATION: CREATING AGREEMENTS

In this day of buying forms on line, lawyer-provided contracts must offer a more detailed and customized approach. What is it that we offer to our clients that is more than the forms that can be downloaded? In this 1 hour CLE, we will explore new models of drafting contracts that incorporate the principles of conscious business, deliberate selection of conict resolution approaches, and how to talk to your clients about your role as a lawyer in helping them build sustainable relationships.
