Description

Acting in commercial litigation matters presents a range of recurring challenges for solicitors, from managing client expectations to keeping a comprehensive file record. 

Join guest speaker Eleanor Madden, Partner, Lander & Rogers, as she addresses many of the common issues that solicitors face when acting in commercial litigation matters. Eleanor will share her insights as she tracks the life of a commercial litigation matter, from taking initial instructions to resolution and recovery of fees.

The webinar will focus on recurring commercial litigation risk issues, such as the "difficult client", management of counsel, meeting deadlines, cost limitations, keeping records, personal costs orders and time pressures.
