INTERNATIONAL ARBITRATION ROUNDTABLE 2023 | Arbitration remains strong and widely accepted as a means of resolving international commercial disputes. Potentially, no other process offers such efficient, impartial, multilateral and clear business mechanism for complex disputes. View the insights from our FPD International Arbitration Panellists. Please note: The 'INTERNATIONAL ARBITRATION ROUNDTABLE 2023' publication includes 2 CPD points for all Prime Dispute members. Read More INTERNATIONAL MEDIATION ROUNDTABLE | Over the last decade the approach taken by commercial parties towards dispute resolution has changed. While traditional forms of dispute resolution remain popular, commercial parties are increasingly looking to alternative forms of dispute resolution mechanisms to find methods of dispute resolution which better suit their commercial needs and deliver efficient and effective results. But does mediation provide the answer? Read More WOMEN IN INTERNATIONAL LAW & ADR ROUNDTABLE | As the under-representation of senior women within the legal and ADR community remains a critical issue in the field, Prime Dispute fellows discuss the steps the community needs to take to overcome this lack of diversity, the development of the role of women in the profession and future challenges that will be faced by the next generation of female practitioners.

Read More Download 2 | Mediation : Without Prejudice Read More Download 3 | Blaming the Middleman? Refusal of Relief for Mediator Misconduct Under the Singapore Convention Read More International Arbitration News UK | The Court of Appeal recently ruled that an #ADR clause in a contract was unenforceable due to lack of clarity. This judgment is a useful reminder for parties to contracts that include a #disputeresolution procedure (DRP) clause, and to members drafting DRP clauses. Such clauses may be found unenforceable if they lack sufficient clarity and certainty regarding the DRP process. To discuss a dispute resolution procedure/clause or this judgement with one of our Fellows' please email [email protected] or Read More Mediation News Mediation Paper | BENEFITS OF MEDIATION - FOR ALL INDUSTRY SECTORS!

Read More Thought Leaders | The rise of the evaluative #mediator - An interesting read by our Fellow Peter Vinden FPD, on the increasing popularity of evaluative mediation and on selecting the right mediator for your dispute. "There is no doubt in my mind that the popularity of evaluative #mediations is on the rise. Clients respond well to the concept of receiving non-binding evaluations, particularly if a negotiated settlement cannot be achieved. Often, the parties will take up the mediator’s suggested evaluation. But in the end, it is all about giving parties an informed choice. Whether the parties settle before the mediator provides his or her non-binding evaluation, after the evaluation is issued or not at all, is beyond the gift and control of the mediator. It is all about giving parties options and then letting them decide for themselves." Read More Adjudication News Overview | What is Adjudication? Read More UK | The Technology & Construction Court (TCC) has addressed the law on if a party resisting the enforcement of an adjudicator’s decision can obtain an order for set off or withholding on the basis of another adjudicator's decision. In this judgement 'FK Construction Limited v ISG Retail Limited [2023] EWHC 1042 (TCC)' the TCC held that no set off or withholding was applicable and therefore enforced the decision in full. Read the full judgement or should you need to speak with a Prime Dispute Adjudicator please email [email protected] or Read More UK | Have your say - King's College London launches the 2023 survey on construction adjudication. Open to all users and stakeholders in #construction adjudication in the #UnitedKingdom to complete the 2023 survey on construction adjudication. "Construction adjudication is the main way in which construction disputes are resolved in the UK. Unlike many other forms of ADR, it is not purely voluntary. There is a statutory right to refer a dispute to the adjudication. This makes it all the more important to have robust, clear and comprehensive data on how the process works to make it even better. Last year’s report led to important developments, such as the Adjudication Pledge. I encourage all users of adjudication to complete the survey this year too" Professor Renato Nazzini, Director of The Centre of Construction Law & Dispute Resolution.

Read More Legal Square Update EU | The EU Parliament’s committees for the Internal Market and Liberties and Justice have approved compromise amendments for the draft report on the Artificial Intelligence Act. In their amendments to the Commission’s proposal, MEPs aim to ensure that AI systems are overseen by people, are safe, transparent, traceable, non-discriminatory, and environmentally friendly. The Act is expansive and will govern anyone who provides a product or a service that uses AI. The Act will cover systems that can generate output such as content, predictions, recommendations, or decisions influencing environments. A European Parliament committee voted to strengthen its legislative proposal as it heads toward a plenary vote in June 2023. Final approval is expected by the end of the year, or early 2024 at the latest, followed by a grace period for companies and organisations to implement. Further updates will follow on this group page or if you need to discuss anything relating to #ai with our #FPD members, please emails [email protected] or Read More Awards | Training & Development
