Tips to avoid commercial litigation and understanding the key contract building blocks of commercial contracts
Disputes are an unavoidable reality of operating a business. They arise in many ways – governance, trade, transactions, dealing with employees, stakeholders, and industry regulators.
Despite being a fact of commercial life, few businesses properly plan for disputes or are fully aware of the litigation process. This lack of preparedness can significantly disadvantage a business when litigation cannot be avoided. One of the key ways to avoid disputes, or put yourself in the best position if they do arise, is to get your commercial contracts right.
During their presentations, Jackson McDonald’s, Marcus Pullen and Liam McLagan will provide simple and effective tips to help your business avoid commercial disputes and put it in the best position to resolve any disputes without litigating. They will provide you with an understanding the building blocks of contracts that will empower your business to review, negotiate and enter into them confidently and with an understanding of their effect and consequences.
However, recognising that it is not always possible to avoid litigating, our speakers will identify common traps businesses fall into when Court proceedings commence and explain how to avoid these traps and achieve a successful outcome.
This event will consider important issues such as:
- Contract formation
- Essential concepts
- The fine print
- Statutory frameworks
- Alternative dispute resolution
- Unfair Contract Terms
- Document creation
- Privilege
** Please note this event was originally scheduled for Wednesday 14th August, however will now take place on Wednesday 21st August.
