McFarlane Legal Negotiations 2021

We at the St Patricks Law Students' Society would like to invite you participate in the McFarlane Legal Negotiations. The Negotiations Competition is about testing your ability to listen and negotiate with an opposing team to come to a settlement based upon a set of facts that you have been given. Negotiations will test your ability to listen and form counter arguments but also your ability to memorise your facts and your clients issues to come to the best agreement possible.

A team will consist of two students competing against another team to come to an agreement. You will have 45 minutes to negotiate with this team based upon the facts given, but you will also have a set of private facts which the other team does not know about.

Negotiations will be run each week on Thursday and Friday in the month of May. There will be six rounds to compete in, with the final two rounds being the finals. Negotiations will run on the following dates between 6:00 and 8:00pm…

Round One: May 6th and 7th;
Round Two: May 13th and 14th; and
Semi-Final and Grand Final: May 20th and 21st.

If you are looking for another reason to compete, the winning team will be given a day with McFarlane Legal where they will gain valuable experience in the legal area, so make sure to sign up as soon as possible and more information is to come on SPLSS socials so be sure to keep an eye out.
