This annual contract law update from our corporate team considers a number of interesting contract law cases which have highlighted key points for those involved in drafting or managing contracts.
The cases that have been chosen deal with the formation of contracts, interpretation of contracts, endeavours obligations, limitation and exclusion clauses, penalties, notice provisions and termination. In each case there is a brief summary of the facts and the court's decision together with some practical tips. The briefing also considers the impact that Brexit will have on contracts and what steps contracting parties can take when reviewing and drafting contracts.
The full briefing is available here.
