A panel discussion chaired by Chantal-Aimée Doerries QC, Head of Atkin Chambers between Julian Bailey, Partner and White & Case; Professor Renato Nazzini, Director of the Centre for Construction Law and Dispute Resolution at King's College London and James Pickavance, Partner at Jones Day on the subject of arbitrator conflicts, expert conflicts and conflict of laws.
On the subject of arbitrator and expert conflicts, the panel will analyse the interplay between institutional rules, guidelines and recent case law in civil and common law jurisdictions. It will consider conflict of laws in the context of the choice of the seat, the applicable law of the arbitration agreement and conflicts between courts in areas such as anti-arbitration and anti-suit injunctions. Across all three areas, it will offer some thoughts as to how conflicts are used as a way to delay or frustrate the arbitration process and offer some practical guidance as to how these tactics might be overcome.
