Working with Contracts should become a bible for associates in large corporate firms because it offers the reader both basic and more-advanced drafting techniques and concepts. The conscientious reader will be drawn into the subject matter and may likely be surprised that such potentially complex, and perhaps dull, topics could be so inspiring. --New York Law Journal

The second edition of Charles Fox's bestselling paperback guide, Working with Contracts: What Law School Doesn't Teach You, updates the original edition published in 2002. The perfect resource for new associates, law school students, business people, or anyone who frequently deals with complex contracts, the Second Edition expands existing material on contract covenants and remedies for breach of a covenant; due diligence conditions; organization of the agreement; credit-related provisions; acquisition-related provisions; the integration clause; and indemnification. Other miscellaneous revisions are found in every chapter of the second edition. In addition, the glossary and the index have been thoroughly revised. In its updated form, Working with Contracts remains the most useful and practical guide for anyone dealing with sophisticated agreements.
