Foresight and planning can easily prevent the most common litigation headaches. When a prospective business partner is foreign, due diligence goes far beyond a credit check and references. It also requires that a number of issues be addressed in the contract that are handled differently on a domestic basis.  The result: in the event of a dispute, the client isn’t without recourse. Addressing those intricate issues up-front can often prevent a dispute altogether. Viking Advocates can provide perspective on what issues are most important and which can be set aside in the contract negotiation process.
