Hogan Lovells Annual Middle East Dispute Resolution Seminar 2019

Emerging changes: Recent developments in arbitration and litigation in the UAE

The dispute resolution landscape in the UAE is forever shifting. There have been a number of important developments over the past year impacting both arbitration and court proceedings. In order to ensure your business interests and rights are fully protected against future risks, you need to keep apprised of these latest legal developments.

Hogan Lovells has significant experience conducting litigation, arbitration and alternative forms of dispute resolution across the UAE, covering a wide range of industry sectors, from construction and engineering through to insurance and commercial contracts.

In this seminar, we will present "The latest developments in dispute resolution in the UAE" with a focus on arbitration and the offshore courts. We will also look at the possible trends going forward in 2019.

Although many businesses choose arbitration or the offshore courts as their preferred forum for dispute resolution, the local courts cannot be ignored. This is either because businesses find themselves unexpectedly fighting litigation in that forum or require action in the local courts in order to seek enforcement of arbitral awards or offshore and/or foreign court judgments. 

For that reason, we are delighted to announce we will have a special guest speaker, Adv. Ali Ismail Al Zarooni, Chairman and Founder of Horizons & Co. Law Firm and one of the UAE's leading lawyers who will be presenting on "Demystifying the Local Courts".

The presentations will be followed by a Q&A session.
