This book was released on 2002-06-13 with total page 652 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the volume of international business transactions continues to grow dramatically, and as trade relations develop between an ever-increasing number of countries, it is inevitable that many questions of comparative business risk and liability should arise. What common elements underlie the various methods of limiting product liability applied in different national jurisdictions? How do different legal regimes protect the legitimate rights of consumers? These were the fundamental questions addressed by a well-attended seminar on warranties and disclaimers held within the framework of the 2000 Annual Conference of the International Bar Association in Amsterdam. The seminar--jointly sponsored by IBA Committees S (Products, Liability, Advertising, Unfair Competition and Consumer Affairs), M (International Sales and Related Commercial Transactions) and CC (Corporate Counsel)--consisted of four introductory summaries and 33 country reports by local practitioners. The presentations focused on many important issues, including the following: legal and contractual warranties in contracts for the supply of goods or services between manufacturers, distributors and end-users; methods of communicating disclaimers and limitations of liability; strategies for securing limitations of liability downstream; and variations in the legal effectiveness of disclaimers and limitations. This wealth of material has been compiled and reproduced in this remarkably useful book. Business lawyers will find its insights immensely valuable, whether they are drafting contracts or dealing with potential or actual liabilities virtually anywhere in the world.

This book was released on 2020-12-31 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Master's Thesis from the year 2018 in the subject Law - European and International Law, Intellectual Properties, grade: 2,0, University of Applied Sciences Mainz (Wirtschaft), language: English, abstract: Participation in large-scale international projects (also called megaprojects) has a significant impact on multiple international parties, especially in the industrial plant construction sector. On the one hand, the participation of multiple parties can lead to higher levels of technological achievement. On the other, this participation also leads to greater risk and liabilities for parties. Contract management plays an increasingly important role in megaprojects; it is aimed at identifying and limiting risks that are typical to international industrial plant construction contracts and specific to megaprojects. However, to use these contracts optimally, it is essential to have a comprehensive overview of the main issues of liability. Nowadays, 89% of large German companies consider limitation of liability clauses to be highly important. This is why the main objective of this research was to explore knowledge and insight in regard to limitation of liability clauses. The core questions were addressed such as the important types of liability, the main types of limitation of liability clauses and the restrictions of the limitation of liability clauses. The methods applied to collect and analyze the relevant data were systematic approach, key word search, snowball system and discussions with legal experts from similar megaprojects.

Download or read book Knock for Knock Indemnities and the Law written by Kristoffer Svendsen and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-03-15 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines contractual limitation, principles and practice through the use of knock-for-knock indemnity clauses. In using such clauses, the parties agree that for certain forms of potential liability – typically property damage, personal injury to employees, and sometimes other heads of claim such as consequential loss – any loss arising will be absorbed by the party who suffers it: "you look after your losses, I’ll look after mine." It is an apparently simple, pragmatic and neat solution to the question of who bears liability: a risk allocation model so straightforward that it was described by one experienced English judge, Honorable Mr. Justice Morison, as "crude". A specialist contributor team of international experts, examine the origin, application and effect of these clauses in important jurisdictions, their impact in different industries such as oil & gas, shipping, construction and insurance, through the lenses of both economic and legal analyses. The book is of use for lawyers, economists and businesspeople who draft, negotiates or manage contracts in all industries where liability is dealt with in this way. It is also of interest to students, academics, and policy makers.
