Arbitration, Conciliation & Mediation Practice Manual Notes
OtherMaster the entire spectrum of dispute resolution outside traditional litigation with an authoritative, practical framework. The Advocate's Playbook: Arbitration, Conciliation & Mediation Practice Manual bridges the gap between academic dispute resolution syllabi and high-stakes commercial practice before arbitral tribunals and supervisory High Courts. This manual demystifies every operational phase: drafting binding Section 7 arbitration agreements, managing Section 8 court referrals and Section 9 interim measures, curbing unilateral arbitrator appointments (TRF Ltd. / Perkins Eastman), enforcing strict Section 29A award delivery deadlines, and navigating the grounds for setting aside awards under Section 34. Updated to current 2026 legal standards, it integrates the landmark Constitution Bench ruling in Gayatri Balasamy (permitting limited award modification), the 7-judge NN Global curative bench on unstamped arbitration agreements, Section 27 Mediation Act settlement enforceability, and the execution of foreign awards under the New York and Geneva Conventions. Designed for trial advocates, dispute resolution associates, corporate retainers, and judicial services aspirants, this volume is an indispensable desk referencer.
