March 12, 2025 @ 6:30 pm - 8:00 pm

Many arbitration practitioners often face weighty “matters of state”. Lawyers working on Investor-State arbitrations invariably confront complex questions of politics and policy.  These issues often also arise when State-owned entities act as claimants or respondents.  So how should lawyers navigate high-stakes issues that can involve government disruption, state secrets, confidentiality, military necessity, corruption and even threats to human life?  The practitioners on our panel have many years of experience – both as strategy-setting partners and as associates dealing with the daily realities of State-linked work.  They will provide top tips that will be relevant to lawyers at any level.
