Smith explains that contracts are binding agreements that the courts rarely make exceptions for. Occasionally there are exceptions and the courts will rule a contract unfair, especially if it was something that was forced, but for the most part, all terms of a contract matter and are legally binding. Smith explains the reasons that contracts are enforced and the value of contracts. Learn what “Boilerplate” terms are and why they are important. Smith will explain different clauses in this video including choice of law, choice of forum, arbitration, severability, and cooperation clauses. Learn the pros and cons of each of these clauses and why each is unique and important.
