Good course to keep the issues in mindWhilst unfair contracts rarely comes up in my commercial practice this course gives some good information to file away in your mind for when an issue does pop up. In saying that it is good to keep in mind when writing terms of supply for clients. Interesting that in one case the Court found that granting encumbrances over all assets was excessive and could be struck out.
