Legal and Negotiating Strategies Every Manager Should Know

admin — Tue, 31 Jan 2012 23:40:24 +0000

Today, in what I like to call the civilized world, disputes are resolved in courtrooms. Sure, that’s a step in the right direction. But surprisingly, the strategies and tactics of today’s business disputes are remarkably similar to those used by past leaders on the battlefield. What’s changed the most, on the other hand, is that today’s leaders are surprisingly unprepared to lead their “troops” into battle. It’s shocking, frankly, how naive and ill-equipped most executives and business leaders are, both before and after they enter the modern-day legal battlefield. Read more...

Essential qualities in a Criminal Lawyer

vicky113 — Sat, 28 Jan 2012 11:40:00 +0000

Do you need a criminal lawyer? Are you looking for one to help you with your case? Is anyone you know in trouble and you need clarification on what to look for in a lawyer that will be able to help turn the case in your favour? Would you like guidelines on what you need to spot in any lawyer before hiring his services? How would you like to know within five minutes of talking to a lawyer that you have the right guy? Here are some tips and guidelines to help you along that line.

1. His History and Record Most of the time, finding a criminal lawyer isn't the problem. It is his track record that is the problem. Questions like "How many cases has he won? How many has he lost? What do his colleagues think of him? Does he deliver solid results? Most importantly, can he help me win this case?" come to mind when you want to hire a criminal lawyer. Therefore his track record will speak volumes for him. Criminal lawyers have their victories and their losses. But you don't want one that has more losses than victories. Some attorneys have the good fortune of winning over 98% of all their cases. If you find one like this, he is likely to be costly, will be sought out by most people and more importantly, may not have the time for you even if you have the means to pay him for his services. But if on the other hand, you can find one who has at least 65% of his cases won, then you have a very good chance of hiring the right person - and he is also likely to be less busy and cheaper.

2. Professionalism A lawyer's time is crucial and he therefore doesn't really have the time to chitchat and talk about your woes. What he often wants to talk about is how he can help you. This should come across in your interactions. If he is professional in his interactions with you, then you can be sure you have a good one. He will often ask questions with the aim of getting to the root of the matter. His demeanour will most times be open and while he may be gruff in appearance, he can often make you feel safe. This is the kind of lawyer you want to deal with.

3. Flexibility in Payment options While it is important that you pay him his fees, he should be flexible and understand that times can be rough. In certain instances, if he feels that you may not be able to pay and the case involves compensation for you if you win, you can make him an offer by splitting the profits if you win the case. Good criminal lawyers tend to go for this option and will put in their very best to ensure that you win the case. After all, they cannot make any money unless they win. Other qualities to look for when selecting a criminal lawyer: * Listen carefully to your needs and explanations * Ask lots of questions to dig deep for * Provides procedures and questions that may arise in court very clear to you and other parties involved * Find all possible means the law to help you receive outcome * Understands the importance of early preparation * Works with you in your financial situation to reduce the burden If you're not sure where to start your search, go online and type in keywords specific to your needs. For example, type "Salt lake Kolkata criminal lawyer", "Fort Lauderdale criminal lawyer," misuse of funds or a lawyer in Mumbai "to find a lawyer according to your specifications and / or location. This will reduce research, and help you find the websites of the various lawyers so that you can compare their services online. Make a few calls and notice the professionalism and manners of the receptionist. This is your first impression of any business and a starting point. Now you are ready to meet with a criminal lawyer or perhaps even a bit to make your final decision. Click here to download the article.

Labour Standards and Globalisation: A Case Study of Implementing Minimum Wages

maddy — Sat, 31 Dec 2011 11:40:18 +0000

Minimum wage policy has remained in contention with economists and policy makers aligned on both sides of the debate. Increasingly the state has been forced to formally retract these laws under the onslaught of the globalisation of capital. This has resulted in a precipitous drop of wages for workers, especially in the so-called ‘unorganised sector’. The present note is an attempt to capture the process and consequences of institutionalisation of payment of minimum wages in a public sector academic institution. Read more...

Intellectual Property and Competition Law

Mehul — Sun, 23 Oct 2011 23:40:05 +0000

Intellectual property (IP) law subjects intellectual assets to the owner’s exclusive control. Competition law on the other hand, seeks to avoid market barriers and benefit consumers by ensuring that a multiplicity of suppliers of goods, services and technologies may effectively compete against each other. The relationship between these two areas of law poses uniquely difficult challenges to policymakers, particularly in developing countries, the majority of which have little or no tradition in the application of competition law and policies...refer to the case study
