On 8 May 2026, Nina Jankovic, Counsel at Aceris Law, delivered a virtual session for the USLLS ADR Blog at the University School of Law and Legal Studies, Guru Gobind Singh Indraprastha University, New Delhi. The session formed part of the ADR Blog Professional Series and was titled “From Contracts to Claims: Navigating Risk, Strategy, and Dispute Resolution in International Construction Arbitration”. The event was also announced by SCC Times.

The session was designed for law students and early-career practitioners interested in arbitration and dispute resolution. Its purpose was to connect the contractual foundations of construction projects with the practical realities of arbitral claims. Rather than treating construction arbitration as an abstract procedural subject, the presentation focused on how project decisions, notices, records, expert evidence, and risk allocation shape the outcome of disputes long before a request for arbitration is filed.

A FRANDly Forum? The Growing Role Of Arbitration In SEP Disputes

Standard-essential patent disputes reveal a fundamental tension between territorial patent rights and global technology markets. While patents are enforced nationally, the standards they protect operate across borders, triggering parallel proceedings in multiple jurisdictions.

Can Arbitrators Ask Artificial Intelligence For Its View On Legal Issues?

Artificial intelligence is increasingly being used in international arbitration for legal research, document review, and drafting. However, its use becomes difficult to assess when an arbitrator turns to AI not merely to process information, but to obtain a view on a legal issue that the tribunal must decide.
