RAC event within the framework of the Dubai Arbitration Week
On November 13, we held the event “Dialogue with Judges: MENA Perspective on Arbitration Support” within the framework of the Dubai Arbitration Week.
The event took place in the format of an open dialogue, during which practicing lawyers and judges from across the MENA region explored the evolving relationship between national courts and arbitration.
Our distinguished speakers shared the features of arbitration across various jurisdictions, highlighting key aspects that arbitrators and representatives should consider.
