Publication of Law Over Borders: Arbitration Guide, edited by Volterra Fietta Partners Ahmed Abdel-Hakam, Gunjan Sharma and Robert G Volterra

The second edition of the “Law over borders: Arbitration Guide” has been released by the publishers.  The Guide is edited by Volterra Fietta Partners Robert G Volterra, Gunjan Sharma and Ahmed Abdel-Hakam.

The Arbitration Guide offers a comprehensive analysis of arbitration frameworks across an array of jurisdictions around the globe.  It contains contributions from leading arbitration specialists from across the world, offering detailed insights into how arbitration is conducted and supported within their jurisdiction.

The Arbitration Guide is a practical resource for in-house counsel, law firms, arbitrators and policymakers.  It examines key aspects of the arbitral process, including the validity of arbitration agreements, tribunal constitution, court assistance, award enforcement, third-party funding and sovereign immunity.

Each chapter answers a series of structured questions designed to help readers understand and compare how different jurisdictions approach the same core arbitration issues.  These include whether arbitration clauses are separable, how tribunals are appointed and challenged, when domestic courts may intervene in arbitration proceedings, what interim relief is available, how awards are enforced, whether proceedings are confidential, and how States and State-owned entities are treated in arbitration.
