Description:
International commerce brings with it not only the anticipated profit but also the prospect of uncollected trade debt.  The creditor is then faced with the search for unencumbered assets, most likely outside their own jurisdiction. In an international claim or commercial dispute, the creditor is faced with the certain challenges that he does not find in a purely domestic dispute.  Join David Franklin, author of International Commercial Debt Collection, Commercial Debt Collection in Canada: A Legal Handbook, and co-author of International Commercial Secured Transactions, for a detailed and informative guide to this growing area of international law.
 
The following topics will be discussed:
 
1.  The fees structure of the foreign attorney.
2.  Choosing the foreign attorney.
3.  Power of Attorney.
4.  The use of Arbitration and Jurisdiction Clauses.
5.  Statute of Limitations.
6.  Claiming attorney and collection charges.
7.  Security for Costs.
8.  Personal Guarantees.
9.  Enforcement of Canadian Judgments abroad.
10. Enforcement of Canadian Arbitration awards.
