Meeting to Resolve Differences Clause Samples

The 'Meeting to Resolve Differences' clause establishes a formal process for parties to address and attempt to resolve disputes or disagreements that arise during the course of their agreement. Typically, this clause requires the parties to meet—either in person or virtually—within a specified timeframe after a dispute is identified, with the goal of negotiating a mutually acceptable solution before pursuing litigation or arbitration. By mandating direct communication and negotiation, this clause helps prevent escalation of conflicts, encourages collaboration, and can save time and costs associated with more formal dispute resolution methods.
