THIS WEBINAR WILL BE PRESENTED IN FRENCH

Practitioners based in Québec and elsewhere in Canada regularly incorporate standard clauses borrowed from common law into the IP contracts they draft, such as confidentiality agreements, service contracts, licenses, IP rights transfer agreements, co-development agreements, etc. This raises a number of questions, including the following:

  • Are these clauses valid?
  • How are they interpreted in civil law, and what is their effect?
  • Are there better standard clauses derived from civil law?
  • What are best practices?
