San Diego, California Jan 28, 2026 (EMWNews.com) – Attorney Credits, a leading provider of continuing legal education, has released a new on-demand CLE course titled Drafting Controversial Contract Clauses: What Clauses Are Worth the Fight?, presented by Kristi Zentner, Esq. and Heather Marx, Esq.
Contract negotiations often hinge on a small number of highly contested provisions–where both sides want everything, and compromise feels impossible. This course addresses the real-world question attorneys face daily: which clauses are truly worth fighting for, and which can be strategically negotiated without sacrificing client interests.
Drawing on their experience from both sides of the negotiating table, Zentner, a seasoned transactional attorney, and Marx, an experienced commercial litigator, provide a balanced and practical perspective on contract risk, enforceability, and dispute prevention. The program explores common flashpoints such as indemnification, limitation of liability, representations and warranties, and confidentiality provisions, while offering guidance on how to tailor clauses to a client’s specific risk profile.
Participants will also learn how to draft with enforceability in mind and how to memorialize negotiations clearly to avoid ambiguity, misalignment with term sheets, and costly disputes down the road.
Course Topics Include:
-
Identifying high-risk contract clauses that drive litigation
-
Evaluating leverage, counterparty risk, and negotiation dynamics
-
Drafting enforceable, risk-shifting provisions
-
Avoiding ambiguity and common drafting mistakes
-
Ensuring contracts accurately reflect negotiated business terms
-
Practical drafting techniques to reduce dispute exposure
