NLJ this week: Fairness matters in international arbitration

180617

It started with a package holiday buffet and ended with a valuable lesson on the fairness of cross-examination in international arbitration

In this week’s NLJ, Charlotte Pope-Williams and Adam Riley, of 3 Hare Court, reflect on the impact of Griffiths v TUI.

They write that the case ‘is a prime example of the UK’s Supreme Court articulating general propositions of law that are of universal application, irrespective of practice area, which could reverberate across the Commonwealth’.

The article is the first in a series by 3 Hare Court barristers on the world of international arbitration and universal application.
