Consultation; Settlement Clause Samples

The 'Consultation; Settlement' clause establishes a process for parties to communicate and collaborate before resolving disputes or claims, particularly those that may lead to settlement. Typically, this clause requires the parties to consult with each other in good faith to attempt to reach a mutually agreeable solution before pursuing formal legal action or arbitration. For example, if a disagreement arises over contract performance, both sides must first meet or confer to discuss possible resolutions. The core function of this clause is to encourage early, amicable resolution of disputes, potentially saving time and costs associated with litigation or arbitration.
