Challenges and Contractual Issues With Sub-Subcontractors

Lorman Education Services
Training Provided by Lorman Education Services nA subcontractor in today's construction industry faces unique challenges and concerns - from dealing with a bid process that can lock in a bidding subcontractor without any written agreement, to subcontractor form contracts that are written largely, if not entirely, in favor of the general contractor. In addition to concerns in bidding and contract formation, a subcontractor must constantly evaluate and preserve its relationship with the prime contractor on its projects. In doing so, a subcontractor is often tempted if not altogether resigned to subject itself to unfavorable indemnification clauses, payment clauses, etc. However, a contract that is overly favorable to a prime contractor and places you at risk is too dangerous in today's construction climate. n nThis teleconference will help subcontractors be prepared for the bid process and for contract formation. You'll learn how to diagnose areas of subcontract language that most often lead to costly dispute resolution for the parties. The teleconference will also aid subcontractors in countering a general contractor's attempts to shift any and all risks associated with a subcontract to the subcontractor. This program is critical for subcontractors, because failure to have a clear understanding of the parties' rights and responsibilities in executing and performing the subcontract only threatens the profitability of the work you do. Sign up today! n nLearning Objectives n- You will be able to analyze problems that arise in case law. n- You will be able to interpret enforceability. n- You will be able to discuss pricing the bid. n- You will be able to repeat recent case points.
