Decisions that Matter: Caselaw Year in Review

JAMS is proud to collaborate with the New York International Arbitration Center (NYIAC) to bring together this dynamic session to examine significant arbitration decisions from the past year that are shaping practice in New York, across the U.S., and within the broader international arbitration community. Panelists will explore recent rulings on jurisdictional objections, the enforcement of arbitral awards, and procedural innovations, while also reflecting on their implications for NY/U.S. seated arbitrations, contract drafting, and strategic decision-making in cross-border disputes. Attendees can expect a practical and forward-looking discussion informed by real-world experience and legal insight.
