Greetings from CILS Arbitration Symposium!!! Session 6: Do You Hear Me Now? An Engaged and Candid Dialogue of Clients, Counsel, and Arbitrators This panel will explore the sometimes-differing expectations of clients, counsel, and arbitrators regarding arbitrator best practices and optimal arbitrator behavior in the international arbitration process. Recognizing that the expectations of arbitral participants are inevitably tied to their differing interests and viewpoints, the panel will examine ways to better align these expectations through improved dialogue. Specific topics will include the optimal role of in-house counsel, strategies to streamline arbitration, realistic assessments of document disclosure in international arbitration, the potential role of arbitrators in dispute settlement, and strategies to tailor and right-size arbitral procedures to the dispute at hand. #InternationalArbitration #ArbitratorExpectations #ClientCounselArbitrator #ArbitrationBestPractices #InHouseCounsel #StreamlineArbitration #DocumentDisclosure #DisputeSettlement #ArbitralProcedure
