The winners of the Sussex Law School/DMH Stallard Negotiation Competition for the 2017/18 academic year have been named as students Samantha Allan and Liam Switzer.
Samantha and Liam emerged as winners of the Competition after a closely fought final, with fellow contestants Jennifer Michal Miller and Remus Cozma finishing as runners up.
The Competition was judged by Dr Charlotte Skeet from Sussex Law School and Neil Farrow from DMH Stallard, who very generously sponsored the event.
Speaking after the event, Mr Farrow said: “The teams were great, but the winning team I thought was one of the strongest I’ve judged on.”
Dr Shahrzad Fouladvand, a Lecturer in International Criminal Law at Sussex Law School who led the Negotiation Competition, dedicated thanks to those who had contributed.
She said: “I would like to express my thanks to Charlotte, Neil and especially to DMH Stallard for their continued support for the Competition.
“Thanks also to all the contestants and to Giorgia Baldi, Christine Turnbull and Jane Lambert for their tremendous assistance with the organisation, particularly for the final round.”
As winners of the Competition, Samantha and Liam will now go on to participate in the London Regional of the National Student Negotiation Competition 2018.
