Mediation, Settlement and Commercial Agreements: A Litigator's Perspective

This program reviews issues such as:

• Why mediate - and more importantly, how? Commercial considerations and legal positioning meet when it comes to determining both the forum for dispute resolution as well as negotiation positions and settlement offers. See how we reach our recommendations, and what to think about in formulating a position.
• Documenting settlements (and all types of commercial agreements): When, and how, is the deal struck? Masters v Cameron and how to obtain certainty (and avoid headaches) in commercial negotiations.
• What if it doesn't work? Termination considerations and the importance of having one's legal ducks in an enforceable row
