Better Call the Board: Adjudication as a Key to Conflict Management
by Russian Arbitration Center at the Russian Institute of Modern Arbitration
In Russia and many other jurisdictions adjudication still remains terra incognita. We have invited international practitioners with a long-term expertise to shed light on this matter.
During the interactive session, our speakers along with the guests, will try to puzzle out what adjudication actually is and how this alternative dispute resolution method can help to boost the implementation of complex projects, improve business relations, and save money.
The interactive session aims to demystify adjudication, a form of alternative dispute resolution that is widely used in sectors such as construction and commercial projects in jurisdictions like the UK, Australia, and New Zealand. Adjudication offers a swift, cost-effective, and binding means of resolving disputes, typically while work on the underlying project continues. Our speakers will share their long-term experience and insights, guiding participants through:
– How adjudication can accelerate the resolution of complex project disputes, thereby helping to keep projects on track and within budget;
– The potential for adjudication to improve business relationships by providing a neutral, expert-led process that delivers enforceable decisions quickly;
– Practical examples and case studies.
Among the speakers of the event:
– Robert Sliwinski, Barrister, President of the RAC Adjudication Committee, Chartered Arbitrator, Accredited Adjudicator and Mediator, Quantity Surveyor, and Dispute Board Member (Dubai);
– Rajdeep Choudhury, Barrister at 4–5 Gray’s Inn Square (London), Advocate (India), Independent Arbitrator;
– Vladimir Kostsov, PhD in Law, LL.M (Harvard), Lecturer at HSE University’s School of International Law, Counsel at the Dispute Resolution and International Arbitration practice of Stonebridge Legal;
– Stanislava Sosnina, Head of the Key Activity Legal Support Division, RAOS Project;
– Daniil Petrukh, Senior Lawyer at SIBUR, Head of International Arbitration.
The panel will be moderated by Valeria Butyrina, Deputy CEO of the Russian Arbitration Center.
