NIRL 34 - Simon Tsapepas - Negotiating Proceeds of Crimes claims, blockchain and much more

Negotiation in Real Life

In this episode of Negotiation in Real Life, I speak with Simon Tsapepas a managing director at Madison Branson Lawyers.

Simon is a dynamic commercial solicitor and litigator. As a skilled and tactful negotiator, Simon is credited for his commercially sensible and intelligent approach to his clients’ matters. He regularly appears in proceeds of crime & confiscation proceedings and is a member of the Confiscation and Proceeds of Crime List Users’ Group of the Supreme Court and County Court of Victoria.

In acting for major banks, manufacturers, individuals, SMEs and a broad range of corporations, including ASX listed companies, Simon has developed his practice extensively in a number of legal disciplines including corporate advisory, general commercial litigation and banking and finance as well as specialised areas such as proceeds of crime and blockchain.

With a strong track record advising banks, non-bank and sophisticated lenders, developers, and investors, Simon regularly undertakes complex financing transactions and related projects.

In our discussion today, we speak about …

• the importance of being an effective negotiator with yourself before you can negotiate with others
• the need to practice recognising what you are thinking and feeling in the moment
• techniques for building strong relationships with clients
• why being immediately combative may not be the right approach to get results
• normalising the fact that we have good days and bad days
• negotiating in the context of a proceeds of crime dispute
• considerations in negotiations involving blockchain

… and much much more.
