Executive Escalation Clause Samples

The Executive Escalation clause establishes a formal process for resolving disputes or disagreements by requiring that unresolved issues be elevated to senior management or executives of the involved parties. Typically, this means that if lower-level negotiations fail, the matter must be brought to higher-level executives for further discussion and potential resolution before any legal action or arbitration is pursued. This clause helps ensure that disputes are given thorough consideration at the highest levels, often leading to faster, less adversarial solutions and reducing the likelihood of costly litigation.
