Blank Rome is pleased to sponsor the Series.
About the Master Class Series
Today’s in‑house counsel are expected to do more than “review the contract.” They are risk strategists, deal accelerators, and the first line of defense when something goes sideways. This four‑part series follows up on the intro level 2025 Contracts & Negotiations Master Class Series. Providing “201” level guidance, this series is built for attorneys who already know the basics and want to level up—moving from issue‑spotting to shaping contracts that anticipate problems, align with business realities, and stand up under scrutiny.
Each session dives into a high‑impact contracting area where in‑house lawyers routinely face pressure, ambiguity, and evolving risk. The focus is practical, actionable, and grounded in the day‑to‑day realities of supporting a business.
About the Session
Too many organizations don’t discover their insurance requirements have failed until a claim is already on the table—and by then, it's too late to fix a poorly drafted clause or an unverified certificate. This program is a critical checkpoint for in-house counsel who negotiate, draft, or rely on contractual insurance provisions. Attendees will learn how to spot the gaps between what a contract requires and what a policy actually covers—before those gaps turn into denied claims, uncovered losses, or costly disputes. Don’t wait for a loss to find out your coverage was never really there.
