Commercial arbitration law and practice by Marcus Jacobs QC (e-resource)

Wed Sep 21 2016

Commercial and contractual disputes are increasingly resolved outside a courtroom, most often with appropriate dispute resolution expertise. Commercial Arbitration Law and Practice is the complete guide for practitioners and the inhouse legal teams who regularly brief them in this arena. It offers:

  • Rapid access to relevant annotation commentary for both the Commercial Arbitration and Security of Payment legislation
  • Current legislation for all Australian jurisdictions, with the benefit of section-specific cross-references to relevant regulations so that these are not missed
  • Comparative tables offering detailed and linked section by section cross-references around Australia
  • Guiding commentary on the principles applicable to commercial dispute resolution
  • Case law insights for all Australian jurisdictions and relevant international decisions
  • Drafting and interpretation guidance, addressing techniques, clauses and standard agreements
  • Ongoing updating to reduce the risk of out-of-date guidance.

Once a looseleaf service, this electronic resource can now be accessed online in the library by members of the NSW Bar association, via westlaw.
