Arbitration is often chosen because of its procedural flexibility. However, such a flexibility is often abused by a party having a losing position.
This webinar aims at describing some procedural arguments and strategies that may affect arbitration proceedings and ultimately have an impact on the merits of a dispute.
Bifurcation claims, anti-suit injunctions, challenges to the arbitral tribunal and parallel judicial proceedings are examples of procedural initiatives that will be analysed during the webinar.
Cost: Access to this event is complimentary, however pre-registration is required.
