Join us for a dynamic panel discussion featuring seasoned corporate attorneys from both private practice and in-house roles as they examine the most common sticking points in commercial contract negotiations—and how to move past them. Drawing on real-world experience from both sides of the table, our speakers will explore where negotiations most often break down, why these challenges arise, and what practical strategies can help re‑energize stalled discussions.

The conversation will focus on recurring pain points such as risk allocation, liability caps, and indemnification provisions, with an emphasis on pragmatic, business‑minded solutions. Panelists will share insights into how different stakeholders assess risk, how to reframe entrenched positions, and how to craft compromises that satisfy legal requirements while supporting broader business objectives. Attendees will come away with actionable takeaways for negotiating toward a workable middle ground—without losing sight of what matters most to the deal.
