She briefly outlines the law reform process conducted by the Law Commission that led to the AA 2025. Hannah then considers the key changes made to the AA 1996, including the introduction of a default rule for the governing law of arbitration agreements, codification of the arbitrator's duty of disclosure, and changes to the framework and procedure for jurisdictional challenges to awards. Hannah also identifies areas of uncertainty around how some of the reforms may operate in practice, as well as highlighting some potential changes to the AA 1996 that were not pursued. Finally, she outlines the transitional arrangements under the AA 2025 that apply to the implementation of the amendments to the AA 1996.</description><guid>https://uk.practicallaw.thomsonreuters.com/Document/Ib1d6f60342c911f0834aff91f66b357a/View/FullText.html?transitionType=Default&amp;contextData=%28sc.Default%29</guid></item><item><title>Dispute Resolution in the UAE: Arbitration Overview</title><link>https://uk.practicallaw.thomsonreuters.com/Document/I2c5556077a5a11efb5eab7c3554138a0/View/FullText.html?transitionType=Default&amp;contextData=%28sc.Default%29</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://uk.practicallaw.thomsonreuters.com/Document/I2c5556077a5a11efb5eab7c3554138a0/View/FullText.html?transitionType=Default&amp;contextData=%28sc.Default%29</guid><pubDate>Tue, 22 Oct 2024 00:00:00 CDT</pubDate><description>In this video, Antonia Birt discusses the use of international arbitration as a means of resolving commercial disputes in the UAE.

In it, Professor Doctor Nathalie Voser draws on her extensive experience as both advocate and arbitrator to discuss how you can adapt your style to be most effective before an international arbitral tribunal. Nathalie highlights the middle way that international arbitration has forged between typical civil and common procedures, particularly in relation to the relative importance of written submissions and the cross-examination of witnesses. While recognising that advocates are not in an easy position, Nathalie emphasises that you should focus on what will assist the tribunal and not hinder the arbitration. During cross-examination, as advocate, you should also consider the position of the witness and try to avoid the atmosphere getting heated. Interestingly, Nathalie's experience is that the virtual hearing environment can actually assist in this respect, but there are other drawbacks that need to be recognised and adapted to.

In it, Paula Hodges KC, Head of Global Arbitration at Herbert Smith Freehills LLP and the President of the London Court of International Arbitration (LCIA), gives the tribunal's perspective, drawing on her wealth of experience sitting as arbitrator in numerous international arbitrations. Paula emphasises the importance of maintaining your credibility as an advocate, so that the tribunal feels it can trust your submissions. The most effective advocates are those that tailor their approach, with a view to assisting the tribunal in its task of determining the real issues in dispute. Paula also discusses the differences in advocacy styles between civil and common law-trained lawyers, and suggests that, whatever your legal tradition, you should seek to be confident, firm and focused to be an effective advocate in international arbitration.

In it, Angeline Welsh KC discusses how she prepares to examine both fact and expert witnesses, as well as how she adapts her approach and style when arguing a case in a virtual, rather than in-person, setting. In Angeline's view, it is crucial to focus on what you want to get out of a particular witness in cross-examination, and use this both to inform your preparation and your approach at the hearing. Particularly when cross-examining expert witnesses, your own experts will be a crucial part of your preparation and it is important to bring the tribunal with you, and help them understand how the expert has reached their conclusions, before challenging them. Angeline also suggests honing your questions for virtual hearings due to their slower pace and more tiring nature.

In it, Angeline Welsh KC discusses how to prepare for oral submissions and the importance of tailoring your approach to the particular tribunal you will appear before. She also tackles how to manage an arbitrator who appears hostile to your case. In preparing for your submissions, Angeline highlights the importance of drafting your speaking notes in a way that suits the way you think, but getting to know your material so well that you are not reliant on it. Your role as an advocate is to put your client's case effectively. To do this, Angeline discusses how to adapt your style and submissions for arbitrators from different legal traditions, and how to proactively address the concerns that may be motivating a hostile arbitrator.

David explains the main findings and reasoning of the Supreme Court's judgment including, among other things, what is required to be disclosed, when disclosure should be made, and who should be the arbiter of whether a disclosure might reasonably lead to an apprehension of bias. He concludes by surmising what might be the implications of this decision for arbitral institutions.</description><guid>https://uk.practicallaw.thomsonreuters.com/Document/I5e6e8333412811ebbea4f0dc9fb69570/View/FullText.html?transitionType=Default&amp;contextData=%28sc.Default%29</guid></item><item><title>Interim Relief in Arbitration</title><link>https://uk.practicallaw.thomsonreuters.com/Document/I1802c341a5b111eabea3f0dc9fb69570/View/FullText.html?transitionType=Default&amp;contextData=%28sc.Default%29</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://uk.practicallaw.thomsonreuters.com/Document/I1802c341a5b111eabea3f0dc9fb69570/View/FullText.html?transitionType=Default&amp;contextData=%28sc.Default%29</guid><pubDate>Wed, 03 Jun 2020 00:00:00 CDT</pubDate><description>Interim, provisional and conservatory measures are remedies that can be granted before the arbitrators hear the merits and render their final award. They are designed to protect a litigant during an arbitration to insure a meaningful final adjudication on the merits. These are extraordinary remedies that are usually granted only on the ground that the award to which the applicant may be entitled may be rendered ineffectual without interim relief. If the remedy is granted, the applicant may be required to post security to make the other party whole for any injury it sustains resulting from the remedy if it is determined that the applicant was not entitled to the remedy. Before advising a client to seek an interim remedy, counsel should consider the likelihood of obtaining relief and the value of that relief if obtained.</description><guid>https://uk.practicallaw.thomsonreuters.com/Document/I1802c341a5b111eabea3f0dc9fb69570/View/FullText.html?transitionType=Default&amp;contextData=%28sc.Default%29</guid></item><item><title>Brexit: jurisdiction and enforcement of judgments during and after the transition period</title><link>https://uk.practicallaw.thomsonreuters.com/Document/I71cc6bd3788b11ea80afece799150095/View/FullText.html?transitionType=Default&amp;contextData=%28sc.Default%29</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://uk.practicallaw.thomsonreuters.com/Document/I71cc6bd3788b11ea80afece799150095/View/FullText.html?transitionType=Default&amp;contextData=%28sc.Default%29</guid><pubDate>Tue, 07 Apr 2020 00:00:00 CDT</pubDate><description>In this video, Anna Pertoldi, partner at Herbert Smith Freehills, considers jurisdiction and enforcement of judgments during and after the Brexit transition period.
