In this episode of Negotiation in Real Life, I speak with Matthew Karakoulakis, the principal lawyer at AMK Law. Matthew is a widely known and acclaimed legal professional with almost 20 years of experience in the industry. He is featured in a significant number of cutting-edge articles and legal publications. His career began at the Australian Securities and Investments Commission, and he later branched out to work at both a national and top-tier law firm.

Fueled by his desire to make a significant impact, Matthew established AMK Law in 2014. His mission was to work directly with small businesses and entrepreneurs, offering them superior-quality legal services and building meaningful, impactful relationships.

In our discussion today, we speak about …

  • the importance of focussing on win-win outcomes from the beginning of a negotiation
  • the power of listening and empathy
  • tips for negotiating warranty issues with car dealers
  • the impact of “black cladding” on indigenous businesses
  • advice for building rapport with first nations people
  • … and much much more.
