Kuney's The Elements of Contract Drafting: With Questions and Clauses for Consideration, 5th

This book is a practical, brief, to-the-point text covering the fundamental working parts of a contract and how one should be prepared. It provides an overview of the issues and processes involved in drafting contracts and transactional documents. It enables students to analyze the basic structure of contracts and other deal documents and develop the macro and micro techniques used to efficiently create those documents with precision and clarity. It provides the principles necessary for an understanding of the common structures of transactional documents and their provisions that can then be applied to specific transactions. The chapters include exercises and full agreements are found in the appendices. A final chapter for this edition covers transactional legal opinion practice. Beyond structural drafting, this book also covers some of the substantive laws that may affect contracts.
