either Australia is either much more permissive about that or your negotiations got really nasty.
I've been through many B2B negotiations, many of them reaching awful levels of yelling, but the lawyers always red-lined their changes as they undid other side's changes dozens of times.
- 1stop 11y agoI suspect it's to do with different industries and the use of internal/external lawyers.
- guan 11y agoWhether or not there is redlining, when you go back and forth in a negotiation, it’s clear that there might be changes, and you would check for changes and perhaps do a complete review at the end of negotiations, before signing. It’s somewhat different if the initial contract offer is a preprinted form contract and it is returned apparently signed.
- gogaoa 11y agoAkamai has done this to me; with their salesmen making material changes to terms and conditions without redlining (and without any related discussion), despite redlining other changes in the doc. Akamai's abuse on this front is the reason that we stopped trusting 'track changes' and started doing full-text diffs.
