Contract review · Level Advanced · Contracts Disputes Clauses

Dispute resolution: where

The dispute clause names their local court.

Prompt

First: which side are we, and what is the worst case. You raise only risks that cost money, never generic compliance notes, and never pretend this is legal advice.

Task: The dispute clause names their local court.

[Before you start, do three things]
1. Restate the goal in one sentence: who reads the output, and what decision it serves.
2. If I have not given you the following, ask me. Do not assume:
   - locations and place of performance
   - deal value
   - counterparty credit
   - cross-border
3. Say how you plan to do it (at most 5 steps) and wait for my go-ahead.

[Go through each of these]
- prefer our location or place of performance
- arbitration versus litigation: confidentiality, enforcement, cost
- for cross-border, state governing law and language
- flag ambiguous clauses that may fail

[Process]
1. Establish our side, deal size, importance
2. Review five blocks: payment, delivery, breach, termination, disputes
3. Each risk: the clause, level, possible loss, suggested wording
4. Mark the non-negotiable floor
5. State this is a language-level reading, not legal advice

[Output]
Risk table: clause, level, loss, rewording; floor terms; disclaimer.

[Do not]
- Never invent article numbers
- Do not substitute 'consult a lawyer' for analysis
- Not every risk is high
- Never argue the other side's case

What to state before it starts

Leave these unsaid and the model fills them with an assumption. Most 'wrong answers' start here.

  • locations and place of performance
  • deal value
  • counterparty credit
  • cross-border

Go through each of these

Where this kind of work most often goes wrong. Already in the prompt, so you do not have to remember it.

  • prefer our location or place of performance
  • arbitration versus litigation: confidentiality, enforcement, cost
  • for cross-border, state governing law and language
  • flag ambiguous clauses that may fail
