/
Content updates

Ambitious businesses grow by tapping into global markets. While doing business overseas can be very rewarding, it presents significant legal risks that need to be managed. In particular: how, and where, will any disputes with your foreign counterpart be handled? Whose law will govern your relationship? And if there is a dispute, do you have a realistic chance of enforcing any judgment awarded?

Join Anna Kirk of Bankside Chambers Limited, Auckland and Edward Taylor of Shearman & Sterling LLP, Hong Kong for a webinar with Practical Law writers Abigail Milburn, Shan-Ree Tan and Bryan Jung where they discuss:

  • An overview of international dispute resolution options and framework in the Asia Pacific region, in particular, Hong Kong, Singapore, Australia and New Zealand.
  • How to prepare effective dispute resolution clauses.
     
  • Comparing litigation and arbitration.
     
  • Similarities and differences in procedures and technical aspects such as third party funding and interim measures.
     
  • Pros and cons such as finality, appealability, and costs.
  • Enforcement of foreign judgments and arbitral decisions.
  • A case study of a business selling into a foreign market: evaluating different dispute resolution options available.

A complimentary dispute resolution toolkit curated by Practical Law's subject matter experts will be shared with webinar attendees, highlighting relevant Asia Pacific resources available on Practical Law's site.
