About this title

Synopsis

This book guides practitioners and corporate counsel through all aspects of an arbitration. As arbitration has become the standard for international business, corporate counsel at multi-national companies are required to offer advice on a legal system which differs from their own.

It covers questions such as:

• Do we really need arbitration in our contract (and if so, what arbitration best suits my company and contract)?
• How much will it cost (arbitrators, counsel, experts, etc)?
• How long will it take (not just time tables, but realistically)?
• What can I do to reduce the costs and time?
• What am I looking for when appointing an arbitrator?
• Do I really need to hire outside counsel?
• Do I really need to hire "local counsel"?
• If we are aggrieved, will arbitration allow effective recovery?
• How much will arbitration cost?
• How will arbitration affect the relationship with the opponent and do we care?
• Should we go to court or pursue ADR instead, whether or not required/allowed by contract?
• What about investment treaty remedies?
• If we are natural defendant, should we wait for claimant to sue or take the initiative?

The title will provide International Corporate Counsel with a practical and yet exhaustive overview of international arbitration.
