Thursday June 26, 2025
3:00 - 3:45 PM EST

Promissory Notes, Payment Schedules and Confessions of Judgment

Presented by James Vann

Vann Attorneys is hosting an essential webinar focused on Promissory Notes, Payment Schedules, and Confessions of Judgment: How to Plan for Optimal Payment from Your Customer. This webinar is designed to help businesses structure more effective credit arrangements and reduce risk when extending terms to customers.

In an environment where cash flow and timely payments are more important than ever, understanding how to properly document payment obligations is critical. This webinar will provide practical guidance on tools that can improve your ability to collect payment while minimizing legal exposure.

We will walk through the legal framework and best practices for using promissory notes and structured payment agreements, and we’ll examine how and when confessions of judgment may be appropriate under North Carolina law.

Key topics will include:

• Promissory Notes – What terms should be included to protect your business and improve enforceability in court?

• Payment Schedules – How to structure payment terms that are realistic, legally sound, and beneficial for cash flow management.

• Confessions of Judgment – When they can be used, what courts require, and the legal and ethical considerations businesses must evaluate.

• Negotiation Tips – How to approach customers with payment plans and balance the need for repayment with preserving the business relationship.

• Enforceability & Collection – Common pitfalls in drafting agreements and what can make or break your ability to enforce them later.

This webinar will be especially valuable for business owners, credit managers, in-house counsel, and financial officers who deal with customer payment issues and want to be proactive about improving recovery strategies.

Join James Vann as he shares practical insights on how to create payment arrangements that work — and that hold up legally if enforcement becomes necessary.
