This book is a comprehensive guide on how to effectively and successfully serve as an arbitrator and as counsel in contemporary commercial arbitrations. The book reflects the judgment and knowledge of over 50 leading arbitrators, arbitration providers, counsel, academics, and others with collective experience in thousands of commercial arbitrations.

Addressed in the book at length is practice development—how one can actually get cases, get on the rosters of major arbitration providers and get selected for cases, or, as counsel, get retained for arbitrations.

The book is comprised of edited transcripts from NYSBA’s three-day training session held at Cardozo School of Law. The program covered a comprehensive list of topics, including managing an arbitration from the preliminary conference through the hearing and award, the law of arbitration, the ethical rules relating to service as an arbitrator, e-discovery, international arbitration, award writing, the mental heuristics relevant to arbitral decision-making, and the development of an arbitration practice.

Also included with the book are articles with tips, best practices, and study guides, as well as necessary forms.

“A must-have book for every litigator, arbitrator, and would-be arbitrator in New York and beyond.”

“The level of information and energy was amazing. It covered the area from soup to nuts. The seminar should be used for prospective arbitrators by all of the various arbitration programs. The knowledge and willingness to answer questions by the speakers was awesome.”
