About the Course

  Why every lawyer needs to learn about Arbitration?

1.    Most transactions nowadays are cross-border as the economy becomes more and more integrated.

2.    This makes arbitration the go-to mode for resolving disputes arising from these cross-border transactions.

3.    If you do not have previous knowledge about arbitration, then you will struggle to know whether the arbitration clause in your agreement would be tailored enough for disputes arising from such a transaction.

4.    There are many issues that the corporate counsel should know about arbitration in order to draft a tailor-made arbitral clause under these transactions. Examples are listed under my article on "Midnight Clauses"

5.    No one can afford to be too specialized in the Egyptian Market. You might be a corporate counsel but you will probably get asked frequently to assess an arbitration agreement in numerous types of agreements. This requires that even corporate counsels should be equipped with a minimum amount of knowledge about arbitration.
