Here’s what Akanksha Mishra, CEO of Lawctopus Law School, who is the faculty of this workshop, has to say:
A well-drafted contract provides a clear framework for addressing issues in a business relationship, significantly reducing the likelihood of disputes. Therefore, mastering contract drafting is crucial for everyone.
Over these 5 days, I will train you to draft any type of contract. We’ll delve into each clause, exploring its language, grammar, the technicalities, formatting, and punctuation.
By the end of this training, you’ll have a comprehensive understanding of contracts and the confidence to draft them independently.
My classes will include practical activities and exercises, allowing you to practice the art of contract drafting firsthand.
You’ll also participate in a contract lab where you will draft clauses as a team.
