DOWNLOAD EBOOK →With the aim of creating an autonomous regime for the interpretation and application of the contract, boilerplate clauses are often inserted into international commercial contracts without negotiations or regard for their legal effects. The assumption that a sufficiently detailed and clear language will ensure that the legal effects of the contract will only be based on the contract, as opposed to the applicable law, was originally encouraged by English courts, and today most international contracts have these clauses, irrespective of the governing law. This collection of essays demonstrates that this assumption is not fully applicable under systems of civil law, because these systems are based on principles, such as good faith and loyalty, which contradict this approach.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →In this enriched new edition of a proven, indispensable practical guide to the drafting and negotiating of agency, distribution, and franchising agreements, the contributors have all updated their country reports with recent cases and commentary and an abundance of new sample clauses and other practical features. In addition, four major jurisdictions – Brazil, England, Japan, and the United States – have been added, bringing the total number of country reports to nineteen. The first edition is well known among commercial law practitioners as the preeminent hands-on guide to drafting effective distribution agreements tailored specifically to countries in which foreign direct investment is a major component of the economy. Local experts provide detailed information on specific applicable law, major current case law, drafting guidance with specific clauses, and official English versions of relevant primary material. Case law summaries clearly expose the issues from which disputes arise, – and the financial consequences of those disputes – and the practical discussion includes sample clauses designed to anticipate those issues and avoid the pitfalls to which they often lead. The enormous day-to-day usefulness of this book will be self-evident to corporate counsel and other lawyers negotiating international commercial distribution agreements. Legal scholars as well will welcome the book’s comparative study of applicable law on commercial contracts in a wide variety of national jurisdictions.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →* Examples are given from "real life" business situations * Practical information and "Golden Rules" on what to do and what not to do * Plain English explanations of legal terms * Helpful resource for corporate managers This book will familiarize the reader with the look and feel of particular contract clauses (often called boilerplate clauses) that are important in commercial contracts. In negotiations, some executives will only scrutinize the commercial or "deal" terms of the contract. The rest is usually left "for the lawyers to sort out." However, the boilerplate clause will usually govern or regulate the other commercial or "deal" clauses. They play a vital part in the contract. It is only through the process of familiarization that you can begin to understand their effects. The important thing is to be able to identify these clauses and to understand what they are trying to achieve by their inclusion in the contract, which will place you well ahead of most other business executives in this area.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →There is an urgent need to better understand the legal issues pertaining to alternative dispute resolution (ADR), particularly in relation to mediation clauses. Despite the promotion of mediation by dispute resolution providers, policy makers, and judges, use of mediation remains low. In particular, problems arise when parties lack certainty regarding the legal effect of a mediation clause, and the potential uncertainty regarding the binding nature of agreements to pursue mediation is problematic and threatens the growth of ADR. This book closely examines the importance and complexity of mediation clauses in commercial contracts to remedy this persistent uncertainty. Using comparative law methods and detailed empirical research, it explores the creation of a comprehensive framework for the mediation clause. Providing valuable insight into the process of ADR and mediation, this book will be of interest to academics, law makers, law students, in-house council, lawyers, as well as parties interesting in drafting enforceable mediation clauses.
