What, for example, is the exact difference between a mortgage, a royalty, a deposit, a right of pledge and an expense? Does compensation mean the same as compensation? Frequent misunderstandings are explained by our experienced language teachers. Delegates to this programme are encouraged to analyse their written work and develop the skills needed to improve their writing in terms of structure, style, grammatical accuracy and word choice. The programme will draw inspiration from the needs of participants through a series of written and oral tasks, with regular feedback and discussion of current trends in legal organisation by experienced English for legal language coaches. Michala Meiselles answers these questions in a simple, clear and concise way and combines the latest material on this topic with an understanding of the learning needs of those approaching it for the first time. Whether you`re a CEO, a lawyer, or a student, this is your guide to how to design business contracts. After reviewing the principles of clarity that were taught on day one, participants will develop these skills by re-developing more complex clauses while making the necessary changes to protect the interests of one of the parties. All participants are invited to bring examples of their own work/contracts, which have been processed to ensure confidentiality in order to verify confidentiality, for verification by the experienced coach. In any case, constructive feedback will be given. (NB: For reasons of time, it will not be possible to review entire agreements or extended sections.
Participants are encouraged to limit their contributions to selected clauses or short sections.) Alan Simmons LLB (Hons) in Law with French LLM, RSA CETEFLA.
