Certificate in Commercial Litigation - Live at Your Desk

Introduction

This introductory level virtual classroom seminar will consider issues typically arising in commercial litigation.

That term refers to cases centred around contracts, business relationships, and other commercial projects across sectors. The outcome of such claims may have a significant impact on the financial position of the parties.

Pursuing this type of litigation is a risk for any business because it can rebound badly, not only by losing but also having to pay both sides’ costs.

Commercial litigators therefore have to be at the top of their game.

This live session will cover important aspects of this type of litigation over three hours.
