Combining detailed legal analysis with commercial guidance, this book examines the law relating to good faith in commercial contracts and the practical, procedural, and legal issues that arise in respect of this often contentious area. Christina Perry evaluates express and implied good faith obligations in common and civil law contracts, as well as in commercial, employment, insurance, partnership, and agency agreements.

Key Features:

  • Compares various areas of the law which are not often studied together
  • Provides in-depth evaluation of recent cases and case law in relation to good faith in commercial contracts
  • Discusses the obligation to exercise contractual discretion in good faith, following the leading case of Braganza v BP Shipping [2015]
  • Assesses the treatment of good faith in contracts in common law jurisdictions such as the United States, and in civil law jurisdictions such as France and Germany

This book is an essential resource for lawyers, both in-house and in private practice, who are responsible for advising clients on the negotiation and drafting of commercial contracts. It is also a helpful reference for students and scholars of commercial law, consumer law, employment law, finance and banking law, and insurance law.
