Zusammenfassung

Arbitration is the dispute resolution mechanism of choice for most cross-border disputes. Arbitration is a complicated, multi-layered area of law. A transnational practice has developed, impacted by civil and common law features. At the same time, it is possible to explain 10 x 10 key concepts of international arbitration accurately and understandably on two pages each. This is the concept, the promise of this book.

The book explains 100 facts about arbitration proceedings that

  • every in-house lawyer must know

  • every outside counsel needs to communicate in a nutshell to his or her clients.

The authors are partners and senior associates of Baker McKenzie‘s German arbitration group, unanimously ranked top tier by all international reference guides. This book is aimed at in-house counsel and attorneys who need a straight-forward, no-frills explanation of the core concepts of international arbitration.
