    Description

    This program provides a practical guide to drafting for the assumption and limitation of liabilities in business and commercial transactions.

    The program covers the mechanics of assuming debt in a transaction, how it is identified, terms negotiated and documented. The program also discusses the related issue of how "bad conduct" carve-outs in indemnification and other limitation of liability provisions can defeat limitations on liability if the carve-outs are not carefully drafted. Successor liability in business transactions and techniques to mitigate its risk is also covered.

    This program provides a real-world guide to handling debt and liabilities in transactions.

    • Identifying and documenting the assumption of liabilities

    • "Bad conduct" carve-outs in indemnification and limitation of liability
