Sixteen teams of University of Manitoba law students competed in the nineteenth annual Robson Hall Negotiation Competition on the evening of October 17th, 2024. These upper-year students were selected for having excelled in the Legal Negotiation course they took in their second year of law school. The main purpose of the competition is to develop superb negotiating skills in Manitoba law students for use in their legal career. All legal training and professional expertise is directed toward one key objective—solving a client’s problems. Negotiation is the primary tool for accomplishing precisely that.
