Standard Contract Terms

 
When it comes to standard contract terms it is often the case that the two sides involved in a transaction have a preferred set of standard forms and a “battle of the forms” can take place. This can make it difficult to determine if the parties actually agreed or where there a set of open terms that indicates that there was no agreement. From the standpoint of drafting every drafter has an “angle” and if you can’t understand a provision from the other side then you need to ask what the intention is with the provision and determine what the client wants.

In this 27-minute video our speaker, Steven C. Bennett, reviews boilerplate provisions and common contract provisions. He discusses the importance to disclose all terms and conditions that will govern the sale or service contract, especially if client is not sophisticated. If material provisions are not disclosed and agreed upon, it may mean that there is not an actual contract.

Steven C. Bennett is a partner at Park Jensen Bennett LLP. He is also an adjunct professor of E-Discovery at New York Law School, as well as an adjunct professor of Conflicts of Law at Hofstra Law School. Mr. Bennett is on the New York State Bar Association Committee on E-Discovery.
