Write your term paper from the point of view of an employee explaining to senior management how to alter, or how to include specific practices to avoid legal complications or for additional legal protection.

Please select a term paper topic and answer the following questions:
1. Topic — please describe the topic in 1-2 sentences.
2. Why is this worth researching?
3. What resources have you found so far?
4. How will this new body of knowledge benefit you?
Several students have asked for additional
examples for term paper topics. I have listed a few examples below.
Remember these are just examples to get you started.
The role of arbitration clauses in contracts and the benefits (or burdens) of the arbitration process
Ethics in construction: When should a subcontractor follow the law rather than the head contractor or owner?
Examining ‘Pay-if-paid’ clauses: Ways to monitor this clause and related issues pertaining to legal requirements
Analyzing the different forms of business association and the liability and protections each of them provides
The betterment rule as a tool for contract disputes
Another great topic is
to analyze a business practice in your industry and examine how it may
create exposure to liability. Then discuss how to reduce liability.

The term paper can be on a topic of your choice, however; I suggest
that you choose a topic that you have or will likely encounter at work
or in other professional settings. Using basic legal research tools,
identify and explain the legal issue. Next, explain the specific “law”
or legal concepts that apply, how courts generally rule of these types
of cases and finally what steps can be taken to avoid this legal issue
in the future.
Write your term paper from the point of view of an employee
explaining to senior management how to alter, or how to include specific
practices to avoid legal complications or for additional legal
protection. You can pick any aspect of business, for example, the
subcontracting process, how contracts are formed or terminated, ethical
concerns, allocating losses, insurance, payments, etc. Term papers
should be full of analysis and include your viewpoints and understanding
of how to resolve or improve the business situation. Be sure to
include personal analysis in your term paper. I am very interested to
see how you analyze the legal situation based on the research you have found.
