In addition, Sony operates in the one business sector which is the computer entertainment industry. Sony distributes and market PlayStation products including PS4, PS3, PS2, PSP and others accessories and gaming equipment (IBISWorld, 2013).

In our recent negotiation, my partner Dave and I assumed the roles of Alan Hacker, a computer software developer, and Alan Hacker’s lawyer. Being the lawyer in the negotiation my objective was to avoid litigation with my client’s partner Stanley Star and to aid in the continuation of my client’s co-owned company HackerStar.
