What this session will cover
Our panel discussion will bring together leading experts to explore the key issues shaping the sector in 2025, providing insights into the latest trends, legal developments, and strategic considerations for practitioners.
As global disputes become increasingly complex, the landscape of international dispute resolution is evolving to address emerging challenges.
Key topics of discussion:
– The growing use of economic sanctions has created significant challenges for dispute resolution, impacting enforcement, contractual obligations, and cross-border transactions. Joshua Ray (Outer Temple Chambers) will discuss how sanctions can affect commercial litigation and international arbitration, including how sanctions can limit both a solicitor / counsel’s ability to act for a sanctioned client as well as a claimant’s ability to enforce a judgment.
– As investor-state disputes continue to rise, the enforceability of arbitral awards remains a pressing concern. Lucian ILIE (Outer Temple Chambers) will examine recent decisions on the legal regime for recognition and enforcement, sovereign immunity issues, and practical, procedural considerations.
– With economic crime on the rise, asset tracing has become a critical tool for creditors and claimants seeking enforcement. Kofi Mills-Bampoe (Fox Williams) will explore innovative legal strategies, forensic techniques, and cross-border cooperation in recovering misappropriated assets.
– The rapid development of AI is transforming legal practice from predictive analytics to AI-assisted decision-making. Eman Elnakly (Rimkus) will examine how technology is reshaping dispute resolution, the role of AI in arbitration and litigation, and the consequent ethical considerations for legal professionals.
Our panel discussion will be moderated by international arbitration specialist and Fox Williams partner, Ben Giaretta.
