This paper examines the process of pre-litigation assessments and focuses on three different types of assessment that can be undertaken before launching a WTO dispute: legal, economic and strategic. Furthermore, it provides recommendations for complaining and responding countries and their private stakeholders. The authors analyze a review of procedures adopted by various WTO members for the private sector to petition for trade barrier investigations and suggest that these procedures should also be adopted for developing countries.
