In view of the ongoing pandemic situation, an increasing number of arbitral hearings involving Filipino parties has been held virtually to ensure the expeditious resolution of disputes. With the transition from in-person hearings to virtual hearings, counsel should consider the legal framework for virtual hearings, and also the strategic and technical issues involved in the preparation and conduct of evidentiary hearings. Arbitrators should also consider issues of due process and allow all parties a fair and reasonable opportunity to present their cases so that the integrity of the arbitral proceedings and the eventual award are protected.

Join us for this webinar as leading Filipino and Singaporean international arbitration practitioners and arbitrators share practical tips and guidance on the conduct of virtual hearings.

Join SIAC for the above event on 18 June at 10am CEST/ 4pm SGT. Register here.
