This video will focus on whether a force majeure clause is necessary in a contract, and if so, considerations in drafting the clause. This includes outlining general pitfalls to avoid when drafting the clauses.
The COVID-19 pandemic has highlighted the importance of force majeure clauses. The webinar will also discuss the applicability of force majeure clauses to the COVID-19 pandemic, and how to draft force majeure clauses in light of the pandemic.
