This is a class about promises, trust, cooperation, profit, risk, agreement, consent, scams, costly mistakes, miscommunication, cold feet, failed expectations, remorse, apologies, the English language, power, justice, the fallibility of human prediction, and the chaos of the world—all as they are mediated by a tool that courts recognize as “contracts."
We’ll approach contracts from the standpoint of clients, and we’ll learn contract law through the lenses of three main real-world contract questions that clients bring to attorneys: What do we have to do? How do we get out of doing it? And what if the other side won't do what they said they'd do?
