Now, more than ever parties are encouraged to compromise their differences, rather than pursue their legal rights and remedies by a trial in court. For example, in the Second Reading Speech accompanying the Civil Dispute Resolution Bill in the Commonwealth Parliament the then Attorney-General, Robert McClelland said:
“The Civil Dispute Resolution Bill is all about seeking to resolve disputes at the most appropriate level. It encourages parties to resolve their disputes at the earliest possible opportunity, and to do so outside of the courts – promoting a move away from the often stressful, expensive adversarial culture of litigation.”
This course reviews how to draft terms of settlement and what you need to look out for.
