Quinn Emanuel Partner Isabelle Michou is joining a panel of arbitration practitioners for an unmissable debate: "Should English Law Disputes Only Be Decided by English Lawyers?"

The debate will explore:

• Party autonomy and the fundamentals of arbitration
• Whether arbitrators must be qualified in the governing law
• Recent case law insights (including s.69 challenges)
• The cultural clash between litigation and arbitration
  
  

With sharp advocacy from barristers arguing both sides, it will be followed by practical insights from seasoned international practitioners.

Isabelle will be speaking alongside: Ali Malek KC (3VB), Rajesh Pillai KC (3VB), Miriam Schmelzer (3VB), Georges Affaki (Chartered Arbitrator, Qatar International Court)
