Paula Hodges QC, Partner and Head of the Global Arbitration Practice at Herbert Smith Freehills has published an article on the impact of the proliferation of rules, guidelines, codes and protocols relating to international arbitration in recent years. The article considers how this so-called "soft law" finds its way into the arbitration process, the status it has attained and the impact it has. It also questions whether the regulation of counsel conduct in arbitration by way of rules and guidance is a step too far. To read the full article please click here.
This article was first published in the Austrian Yearbook on International Arbitration 2015.
