Episode 4 of the Journey Through a Contract series looks at the factors which are taken into account when the terms or clauses of a contract can be read in more than one way.
However well drafted a contract is, there may be times when its terms can mean different things to the parties concerned. In this episode, Lauren Midgley and Fleur Gribble discuss the circumstances in which this can arise and the principles which are commonly applied when determining the true meaning of a contract term. They also provide some top contract drafting tips to help avoid having to ask a court to decide what the terms mean.
