Introduction

Some commentators have suggested that a figure as high as 90% of all  contracts are governed by an arbitration clause. Arbitration has developed a discrete body of rules, procedures and substantive law and calls for a different approach from mediation or commercial litigation. Being successful in arbitration requires intimate knowledge of, and extensive experience with, arbitral rules and the arbitral process – from the filing of the request for arbitration to the registration and enforcement of the award. The differing expectations and demands of parties and arbitrators from across the globe need to be managed
