How many times have you said "If I don't have a written contract, I don't have an enforceable contract."? Or "I don't have any confidentiality obligations because I didn't sign a nondisclosure agreement." Or "Who owns the workproduct of my collaborators?" Or "I can re-use ideas that I have used with one client for a different client." Or "Text, sound, and images on the World Wide Web can be used more freely than materials not posted on the Web."
 
There exists a legal framework that sets out rights and duties in the realm of ideas, inventions, copyright, trademark, trade secrets, and performance standards, even if that standard is never discussed with a client, and even if it does not appear in the written contract.
 
Come and hear Susan M. Kornfield, J.D., an intellectual property attorney with over twenty years of transaction, counseling, litigation, and teaching in this fascinating and important field, give us some pointers on "The Invisible Backdrop of the Law" in the field of project management.
