Arbitration and mediation are popular forms of alternative dispute resolution mechanisms to litigation based on consensus between the parties.
Hong Kong has been trying for over a decade to grow the commercial space’s appetite for mediation as an alternative dispute resolution (ADR) mechanism to resolving commercial disputes. Hong Kong first introduced mediation as a voluntary resolution process under the Civil Justice Reform (CJR) on April 2, 2009.
Gall was pleased to be one of the sponsors of this leading event held in Hong Kong on 1-2 December 2016. The conference was co-presented by the IBA Arbitration Committee, Mediation Committee and the IBA Asia Pacific Regional Forum.
