Beware the Boilerplate (Oct 2017)
A loan is only as good as its documents. When the time comes to enforce a loan or guaranty, the devil is in the drafting—and that includes those standard provisions at the back of the document. Drafters tempted to copy these terms from deal to deal as mere “boilerplate” do so at their peril, because these standard provisions can have case-dispositive effect. Drawing on real case studies, learn why contract terms involving waiver, merger and integration, choice of law and venue, and others deserve a second look.
