Overview of Conference Program To View the PDF Registration Form Click Here The objective of international arbitration is generally to obtain – or avoid – the payment of compensation. Yet despite being the “end game” for most arbitral actions, we often see damages treated almost as an afterthought. By the time experts are engaged, the parties may have hardened their positions to the point where there is no real alternative to proceeding on to a hearing. This seminar will focus on Evidence and Experts. It will explore how attention to damages issues may be fruitful, and how clients and counsel can make the best use of their damages experts, from the initial evaluation of the case, through the development of the case and, ultimately, in the merits hearing. Topics that will be discussed include: Counsel Perspective -- What is good evidence and what is necessary to meet the burden of proof? Expert Perspective -- Application to Private/Investment Claims, and what is necessary to support an opinion of damages Arbitrators Perspective -- The Conundrum: Quantification of Damages, and what is reasonably viewed as proven versus speculative. Collective Perspectives Finally, we will have a roundtable session to address best practices, lessons learned, and the things that irk practitioners, clients, experts and arbitrators most about damages, damages experts, and quantum issues in general. Audience questions – both pre-submitted and from the floor – will be encouraged.
