The consequences of a poorly drafted Calderbank letter or Offer of Compromise can be significant, jeopardising settlement negotiations, weakening your client’s position, and adversely affecting costs outcomes. 

This practical, focused seminar will equip you with the knowledge and drafting skills needed to prepare effective settlement offers that strengthen your client’s negotiating position and support favourable costs outcomes. 

This session will discuss: 

  • Drafting clear, strategic Calderbank offers and Offers of Compromise. 
  • Avoiding common drafting pitfalls that can undermine costs protection and settlement position. 
  • Positioning offers to maximise prospects of indemnity costs if litigation proceeds. 
  • Strategically time and frame settlement offers to maximise commercial and costs leverage. 
  • Recent case update including Lee v Yap (No 2) [2026] VSCA 29. 

Whether your objective is early resolution or securing a favourable costs outcome at trial, this seminar will provide practical tools to navigate settlement negotiations with confidence and precision.
