How I approach a difficult contract clause with my students

 

A practical guide for Spanish-speaking legal professionals

When a contract clause in English feels difficult, translating it word by word is not always the best place to start.

In this free guide, I show you the simple method I use with my students to identify the structure of a clause before translating it.

 

 You will learn how to: 

✓ Identify which party is acting

✓ Recognise what that party must or may do

✓ Find the main contractual action

✓ Notice any condition or time limit affecting the rule

✓ Apply the method to realistic contract clauses

✓ Compare the English with natural Spanish renderings
