UTS Law Students' Society: Negotiation Tutorial

UTS Law Students' Society presents the Negotiation tutorial video.

In a negotiation law students act as solicitors representing their client's interests in a dispute. Each team (consisting of two law students as solicitors) is given instructions by their clients, as well as facts relevant to their side of the dispute. The purpose is not necessarily settlement of the dispute. Solicitors discuss the legal issues and determine whether any proposed agreement between the parties is suitable to their client's needs.

This video demonstrates some techniques students can utilise in the competition. Interviews from academics and members of the legal profession allow for an insight in order to succeed in the competition as well as how you can improve your interests based technique.
