The law bearing upon liquidated damages clauses has many consequences. Like it or not, the enforcement or non-enforcement of liquidated damages clauses often has a significant impact on buyers and sellers, lessors and lessees, and many other economic players, and of course, on the lawyers who draft contracts and litigate when a breach occurs and one party claims damages as liquidated by agreement. Whether you are a student of jurisprudence-or you just draft a lot of contracts in your practice-this book will provide you with a solid understanding as to how liquidated damages clauses are drafted, contended, and construed by the courts. Every transactional lawyer knows the importance of damages clauses in establishing the parties' rights and obligations in the event a contract goes wrong; this book helps you to understand the theory-and in particular, the Supreme Judicial Court's adoption of the "single look" rule-behind the clause.
