Carmen Martinez Lopez and Liz Snodgrass have co-edited the Arbitration Law Over Borders Comparative Guide, published today by the Global Legal Post.
In this comparative guide, Carmen and Liz note the increasingly pro-arbitration orientation of laws in numerous jurisdictions, from established arbitral seats to emerging players.
The guide provides a comprehensive understanding of the current complexities of international arbitration across 16 jurisdictions. Written by expert practitioners, the guide covers all the key aspects of the arbitral process, including the requirements for validity of arbitral agreements, rules concerning the constitution of the arbitral tribunal, and available measures from local courts to assist the arbitral proceeding. It also provides detailed information on general procedural minimum requirements, rules for the validity of awards, availability of post-award proceedings, and enforcement of foreign awards, as well as applicable professional and ethical rules, and the approaches on third-party funding in each jurisdiction. The guide is an invaluable resource for anyone looking to navigate the intricacies of the practice of international arbitration.
The print version of the guide will be available in May and be officially launched at Luxury Law Summit London, which will take place at the British Museum on Tuesday 13 June.
