Contracts are critical for construction projects since they can either protect a party or unknowingly expose them to liability. This seminar will discuss contract formation and how to best handle disputes related to contracts and will cover contracts between the owner and the design professional/consultant, those between the owner and the contractor, and when the contractor retains the design professional/consultant. The seminar will identify potential risks and proposed provisions to alleviate such risks. Examples of provisions and scenarios will be provided to explain clauses that may be helpful. The seminar will also discuss safety-related clauses that can be used to defend against OSHA Citations.

• Understand the contract formation process.
• Recognize the appropriate course of action in the event of a contract dispute.
• Assess which contract provisions are most effective in reducing liability in various scenarios.
• Identify safety-related provisions that can be used to defend against OSHA citations.
