024: Wrapping Up with Closing Clauses

In this season finale of The Contract Playbook, we’re breaking down closing clauses—those often-overlooked sections at the end of a contract that play a crucial role in keeping agreements enforceable. This episode covers: * Severability: Ensures the contract remains valid if a clause is unenforceable. * Notices: Defines how formal communications must be sent. * Modification/Amendments: Governs how changes to the agreement can be made. * Jurisdiction: Specifies which state or country’s laws apply to the contract. While these clauses may seem minor, they’re essential for clarity and protection in influencer-brand agreements. Missed earlier episodes?

episode 020: Navigating Dispute Resolution Clauses artwork
020: Navigating Dispute Resolution Clauses

In this episode of The Contract Playbook, we dive into the essential boilerplate provision of dispute resolution clauses in influencer brand deals. Host Casey Handy-Smith, Esq. unpacks what these clauses are, why they’re important, and how they can save you from costly legal conflicts. Through a real-life story from The Contract Collective™, Casey shares how one influencer agency dealt with a missing dispute resolution clause, why brands sometimes leave this out, and what creators and talent managers should watch for in similar situations. Key Takeaways: * What is a Dispute Resolution Clause? A dispute resolution clause defines how disagreements between parties will be handled, outlining a clear, structured process that helps both parties avoid unnecessary legal battles. * Types of Dispute Resolution: * Mediation: A flexible, collaborative approach where a mediator helps both sides reach an agreement. * Arbitration: A more formal process, often binding, with a neutral arbitrator making a decision. * Litigation: The traditional court process, typically used as a last resort due to its cost, time, and public nature. Why Include a Dispute Resolution Clause? These clauses provide a roadmap for resolving issues, save time and costs, and help maintain a good working relationship between influencers and brands. * How to Negotiate Dispute Resolution Clauses: * Make your preferred method (like mediation) known to the brand early. Be open to compromise with brand preferences while ensuring protection for your client’s interests. * Document discussions if the clause is missing or disputed, creating a record of your negotiation. * Real-World Example from The Contract Collective™: Hear how one influencer agency handled a contract missing a dispute resolution clause, why the brand preferred to keep it out, and how they worked through it.
