Forum Selection Clauses
A forum selection clause is a provision in a contract that specifies which court or jurisdiction will be used for resolving disputes. This means that if the parties involved have a disagreement, they agree in advance on where to take legal action. These clauses help avoid confusion and can save time and money by preventing disputes over where to file a lawsuit. Essentially, it establishes the preferred location for legal proceedings, ensuring that both parties know where to go if problems arise.
