EMAIL
Dear Mr. ****a,

Please review the attached FIDIC Agreement. Our European Consultant M**&**H requires this format to be followed. Please advise if this is in line with our company policy.

Thanks,

RESPONSE

FIDIC Contracts are internationally used as a base for negotiations-- our "Policy" will allow us to use any contract reviewed by Legal--however to send a FIDIC one for "review" without first understanding what its for and what our "clients" (ie yourll ) want is a waste of everyones time-- suggest yourll go thru it and see if it fits your commercial need and then discuss it with us--most of the contents of most agreements are common sense matters anyway and im sure thats one commodity E***** is not short of !



Ouch!

  1. oh wow. that's your legal getting back to you?

    i would, just to make a point, respond to such an email with a CC to EVERYONE including your boss and his boss and his grandfather's boss saying: "thank you for your cooperation and understanding."

    JUST because. but then that's me.
