A strong foundation is key to having the stability necessary for building a successful horse business. Let's start 2020 off right! Great things come to those who plan – attention to contracts can be a highly important part of your business planning.
Equestrian Professional is pleased to offer an important webinar entitled “Equine Law Webinar: Contract Essentials for Horse Professionals – What You Need to Know.” Our speaker is nationally known Equine Law practitioner Julie Fershtman, author of the new book, Equine Law and Horse Sense, which was just published by the American Bar Association.
During this free webinar, you will learn about three categories of contracts for your equine business:

- Barn Rules unique to your facility and operations and Codes of Conduct
This presentation will be informative and easy to understand. You will learn how contracts sometimes fail in a legal challenge, common characteristics of effective contracts, how contract elements can vary greatly across the country, how improper presentation of your contract can put even the best-drafted contracts in peril, and what to consider as you plan to fine-tune your contracts for 2020.
