If you are a Connecticut company be cautious about choice of law provisions in any business Agreement you enter.
Almost all business Agreements contain language that says the law of a particular State governs the interpretation and enforcement of the Agreement. Since business transactions increasingly are conducted across state lines, the choice of law provision in a business Agreement has become extremely important. There are significant variations in the substantive and procedural law from one state to another. If you are a Connecticut business, you always will want to try to negotiate a provision stating that Connecticut law governs the interpretation and enforcement of the Agreement.
If we represent you in a business transaction, it is our job to do our best to assure that any Agreement you sign states that Connecticut law governs the interpretation and enforcement of the Agreement.
