Risk Management: How Technological Advancement is Impacting Contract Creation | Law Society of Scotland
18 February 2026
Online | 2 hours’ verifiable CPD
With the advancement of technology, legal procedures are also forced to evolve and adapt over time. In contract law this can raise serious questions about contract creation, such as when agreements become legally binding and the allocation of liability.
Join our upcoming webinar to explore the intersection of contract law, technology and risk management. The first half will deep dive into the impact on technology in creating legally binding contracts: what does recent case law say about contract creation? And what should lawyers be aware of when drafting contracts given new technologies? The second half will focus on smart contracts, their benefits and drawbacks, and an analysis of liability apportionment if illegalities or complications arose from these contracts.
Attending this webinar fulfils the mandatory 1 hour of Risk Management CPD.
