Description:

New York is a leading venue for international commercial arbitration in the United States, home to the headquarters for the International Centre for Dispute Resolution (the international branch of the American Arbitration Association) and many leaders in the international arbitration field. New York also serves as the locus of several prominent arbitration firms' central offices. With contributions from leading practitioners in the New York arbitration field, International Commercial Arbitration in New York offers a comprehensive treatment of the law and practice relating to this arbitration seat. Its chapters address the legal issues and practicalities of conducting arbitral proceedings in New York, covering topics such as the impact of U.S. litigation practices, the application of New York's law of contracts, drafting of arbitration agreements, selection of arbitrators, jurisdiction of courts and arbitrators, taking of evidence, and principles of damages.

The third edition encompasses eight years of developments in New York and other U.S. international arbitration law, including the Restatement of the U.S. Law of International Commercial and Investor-State Arbitration and several Supreme Court decisions. Every chapter has been updated, and the new edition includes three entirely new chapters covering the role of arbitral institutions in New York, and the important developing subjects of third-party funding of arbitrations and mass arbitrations.

Previous editions have been described as, “a wonderful and important book... a must for all those seriously engaged in the practice or study of international arbitration in New York and in the United States” (Arbitration International) and, “an excellent resource for practitioners anywhere in the world who are or may become involved in an international commercial arbitration seated in New York City” (Global Arbitration Review).

Subjects: Other Jurisdictions; USA; Arbitration and Alternative Dispute Resolution.
