If you are a business executive or manager, U.S. litigation is a part of your life. Whether your company is involved in litigation already, trying to avoid it, or trying to make decisions in the context of existing litigation trends, having a basic understanding of how the litigation process works is a must in today’s world.
In Business Litigation Demystified, award-winning Quinn Emanuel trial lawyer Diane Cafferata walks U.S. and foreign corporate personnel through the U.S. litigation process.
You will learn:
• What to look for in selecting a litigation team and when to engage them
• How to dismiss or narrow the claims against your company
• How to keep the discovery process targeted and sensible
• How to make the most of motion practice
• What to consider in selecting expert witnesses
• How trials work, and what your personnel should expect during the trial
• How to reduce and manage litigation costs
• How to create leverage for better settlements
• What exit strategies are available along the way and ways to avoid litigation altogether
• How to engage your company’s resources, including the litigation team, for maximal effect and minimal business disruption
Armed with this knowledge, you and your team will have richer discussions with your outside litigators or in-house counsel, a deeper understanding of the strategic decisions being contemplated, better control over litigation expenditures, better settlement and avoidance opportunities, and more.
Foreign business leaders and lawyers will especially enjoy this overview of the U.S. litigation process and what advantages and disadvantages it brings to litigants in comparison with other legal systems.
Diane explains it all in plain, higher-level concepts, with legal terms and important points highlighted in callout boxes. Business Litigation Demystified is a practical and painless guide to understanding the dynamics of the U.S. litigation process.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.

To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.

The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
