Whether you are drafting or advising upon a defence or counterclaim, or reviewing counsel’s draft, you need to ensure that the defences and counterclaims to be filed, reflect the client’s instructions and comply with your obligations under the Civil Procedure Act 2010 (Vic).

Costs orders can be made against you or your client if the documents don’t comply.

In this session, an experienced litigator will use practical examples to highlight the essential requirements, inclusions, exclusions, when drafting or reviewing counsel drafted defences and counterclaims.

This session will include:

  • Guidance so that you can confidently advise the client and prepare or review effective, admissible defences and counterclaims
  • Tips and traps of advising, drafting, reviewing defences and counterclaims
  • Form, content and style.

A must for all practitioners who want to improve their advisory and drafting skills!
