SUMMARY:Young lawyers programme: how to impress clients in cross-border m
 atters and navigate cultural and other landmines?
DESCRIPTION:What skills do clients expect of cross-border lawyers? What a
 re clients’ expectations in multi-jurisdictional matters that involve mu
 ltiple law firms or multiple offices of the same global firm? Whether wo
 rking with foreign offices of the same global firm or retaining foreign 
 counsel from independent local firms\, creating a ‘cross-border team’ th
 at will play seamlessly in the client’s corner presents intrinsic challe
 nges\, running from lack of communication and proper understanding of cu
 ltural differences to lack of (or mis-) understanding of the legal posit
 ion in the foreign jurisdiction – all issues that\, ultimately\, generat
 e distrust among lawyers\nand potential disservice to the client. War (i
 f not horror) stories abound.\n\nIn this seminar\, law firm practitioner
 s and general counsel will lead the discussion of these topics\; given t
 he hands-on training nature of this program\, we encourage active partic
 ipation by the audience.\n
