With the exciting opportunities presented by globalization, many businesses, large and small, find themselves engaged in transactions of an international nature. The process of dealing with a business in another country, including the negotiation of an agreement, the drafting of an agreement, and resolving disputes when they arise, present a unique set of challenges, which require an understanding of:
- How the cultural and customary traditions of the other country will
affect the negotiations and agreements;
- Transportation, payment, tariffs, licenses, trade barriers, and other
issues that may arise in implementing the agreement;
- The laws and legal system of both the other country and the
United States, including International Treaties the U.S. may
be a party to;
- How to protect patents, trademarks, copyrights, and other
intellectual property rights in the other country;
- How to make the agreement legally binding and enforceable,
whether in the United States or in the other country;
and,
- Considerations as to how any possible dispute will be resolved.
