Globalization of business has directly affected law practice in North Carolina. Many of our clients do business with foreign vendors and suppliers, sell to foreign customers or have ownership outside the United States. This program — a must for the 21st century lawyer — is designed to prepare you to advise your clients up front on the best international dispute resolution options available and best practices in managing a dispute should one arise.

At this program, attendees:• Review elements to consider when drafting a commercial

international arbitration clause• Hear from in-house counsel and representatives from the

International Centre for Dispute Resolution• Explore ethics, conflicts and cultural issues in the conduct

of international arbitration hearings• Discuss the special public policy problems that can arise in

certain subject matter areas

We conclude the day with an overview of enforcement and collection of arbitral awards in federal and North Carolina courts.

AGENDA

FRIDAY, OCTOBER 19, 2018 | 8:15 a.m. – 4:45 p.m.

8:15 Registration and Continental Breakfast

8:55 Welcome and Introductions Arrowood and Doyle

9:00 Overview of International Arbitration and Mediation

Judge Ridgeway This session provides a review of

treaties, law and rules relevant to international arbitration and the role of courts and arbitral institutions in the recognition and enforcement of arbitration agreements.

10:00 Drafting a General Commercial International Arbitration Clause Graham

Hear a review of the basic (and not so basic) elements to consider when drafting a general commercial arbitration clause that is valid, enforceable and effective: why cut and paste won’t get it.

11:00 Break

11:15 Latest Developments at the ICDR Martinez

The ICDR International Arbitration Report – updates and initiatives for 2018

11:45 Best Practices for Counsel Working on an International Arbitration

Moderators | Martinez and Worthy An in-house counsel panel provides

their perspectives on international arbitration including impact of clause drafting, use of mediation, selection of and coordination with outside counsel and the key issues that in-house counsel should closely monitor including arbitrator selection, nature of document disclosure and coordination with the administering institution.

12:45 Networking Lunch

1:30 Ethics,ConflictsandCulturalIssuesin the Conduct of International Arbitration*

Arrowood In an international dispute, counsel

and the arbitrators are likely to be from multiple jurisdictions and to have different expectations of counsel conduct. This presentation highlights key conflicts and suggests ways to manage conflicting expectations and professional disciplinary rules.

2:30 Special Public Policy Issues that Arise in International Disputes Worthy

In some jurisdictions, public policy forbids use of arbitration even by agreement as a method of dispute resolution for certain issues. These issues may affect the arbitrability of a claim and result in problems in enforcement. This presentation identifies the most common disputes that may be subject to this problem and discusses management of the risk on the front end through contract drafting and in the early stages of the arbitration process.

3:30 Break

3:45 Enforcement and Collection of International Arbitral Awards in Federal and NC Courts

O’Connell This presentation explains the

procedural steps a party must take to convert an international arbitral award into an enforceable domestic judgment in U.S. and NC state courts. It also discusses strategic considerations for avoiding potential bars to enforcement and maximizing your client’s ability to successfully collect upon award.
