The program then focuses on those skills, disciplines and techniques required to achieve the Prime Directive. Finally , the program treats a variety of contractual encounters such as multi jurisdictional transactions, warranties and indemnities, shareholder arrangements, non-compete clauses, options, and more. The program is designed primarily for newly-admitted attorneys, though many experienced attorneys have found it worthwhile.
