Luke Morrison is a featured speaker on Canadian Lawyer’s webinar on Guiding Clients Through Difficult Contract Law Challenges in the COVID-19 Era. Luke and the other panelists will discuss how clients may be contractually exposed, what steps they or a counterparty can take if unable to perform and how to mitigate risk should contracts not be fulfilled. Topics on the agenda include:

  • Identify and discuss the top contractual challenges for organizations.
  • Prioritizing contracts at risk for disruption. What are the greatest risks to organizations?

  • Anticipating disruptions—how to minimize impacts and alternatives to avoid disruption?
  • Discuss various options when there is a contract dispute?
  • How will COVID-19 impact contract relationships beyond the pandemic?
  • What should organizations include in future contracts to better manage impacts?
  • Participate by submitting your most pressing legal questions to a panel of experts.
