This is super helpful.
Would suggest you make this into a "How to deal with NDAs" CZcams playlist as it'd help understand the order of these videos. Especially if they aren't starting with "Why NDAs Matter in the Real World"

I avoid: Residual, privacy, non-solicitation, Indemnity, LOL, indefinite term, immediate actions clauses. Thanks for this video.

Laura, this is really actionable and defensible guidance. I was just remarking 2 days ago to some colleagues about how I came across a counter-party's NDA that was seeking indemnification and non-solicitation commitments. How de ja vu to see exactly these points addressed and validated by your video.
Another point that has consistently troubled me (more generally beyond NDAs) is how indemnification is used. I thought its appropriate use is where the indemnitee wants the indemnitor to indemnify the indemnitee against third party actions that are triggered due to the indemnitor's breach of the commercial agreement between the indemnitee and indemnitor. I have always wondered whether it is appropriate or even meaningful to seek indemnifications in relation to the contracting party's direct breach itself since that liability is likely to be disputed and litigated anyway - perhaps the indemnity would at most be useful in the measure and extent of damages? I wonder if you might share your views on this topic sometime.
