The Importance of Without Prejudice Communications

Mark settlement negotiations as 'Without Prejudice' to protect them from being shown to the judge. This encourages frank discussion by ensuring concessions made during settlement talks can't be used as admissions at trial. However, don't abuse this protection - it doesn't apply to threats, agreements reached, or discussions about procedure. Learn the distinction between 'Without Prejudice' and 'Without Prejudice Save As To Costs'.
