Arbitration Clauses for International Contracts - Second Edition

About the Book:
This book, by a leading international arbitration practitioner, offers suggested language for every option that a drafter of an international arbitration clause may need. Following a succinct assessment of the choice between arbitration and litigation and commentary on the choices among arbitration fora and formats, the author presents an accessible how-to for drafting. While other works offer theory and a smattering of drafting tips, there is no other comprehensive collection of workable language, presented accessibly with easy-to-reference appendices. This book is the standard reference for both in-house counsel and counsel.
Chapter 1 discusses model and standard clauses for both institutional and non-administered (Ad-Hoc) arbitration.
Chapters 2 through 5 discuss the threshold issues faced by parties when they consider providing for a dispute resolution method in their international contract. First, should the contract provide for arbitration (by means of an arbitration clause) or litigation (by means of a consent to the jurisdiction of a designated forum)? Second, if arbitration is selected, should it be administered by an institution or non-administered (ad hoc)? Third, if institutional arbitration is selected, which institution? Fourth, how should the place of arbitration be chosen and what are the implications of the choice?
Chapter 6 is a "how-to" discussion of drafting arbitration clauses, and comprises the largest section of this book. It divides the elements of an arbitration clause among three categories: essential elements; recommended elements; and optional elements. For each element, Chapter 5 offers in the text examples of workable contract language, and an explanation of alternatives. For ease of reference, the Appendices set out these same recommended clauses.
Chapter 7 discusses the utility of providing for negotiation or mediation as a mandatory first step before resorting to arbitration or litigation in international contracts, and suggests language that provides for such a first step without pitfalls.
Chapters 8 through 12 address special situations that may alter the considerations that lead to the selection or rejection of the clauses discussed in Chapter 6. Chapter 8 deals with joinder and intervention clauses for multi-party contracts. Chapter 9 discusses consolidation clauses for related contracts. Chapter 10 addresses expert determination clauses and dispute boards. Chapter 11 analyzes the special issues presented by arbitration clauses in contracts with sovereigns. Chapter 12 concentrates on Chinese arbitration law and contacts.
Chapter 13 addresses choice of law clauses, a subject distinct from dispute resolution per se but one that nevertheless should be addressed in any international contract.
New to the Second Editon:
(i) More decisive recommendations of clauses. The first edition included some clauses whose language the author considered workable, but which he did not in fact recommend. The new edition makes clear which clauses are recommended and why, and has eliminated entirely several clauses set out in the first edition.
(ii) Expert determination and dispute boards. This second edition adds a chapter on clauses providing for expert referral, a practice increasingly used in construction contracts and share purchase agreements.
(iii) China. This second edition introduces a chapter dealing with the special drafting considerations that arise when mainland China is either the place of arbitration or the place of possible enforcement of an arbitral award.
(iv) Sovereign contracts. This chapter is much revised. The author has expanded the discussion of ICSID arbitration clauses and added a section on the vexing issue of assignment of ICSID arbitration agreements. The author has excluded discussion of arbitration agreements involving NGOs.
(v) Increased reference to Latin America law and practice. During the years since the first edition of this book, Latin America has moved to the center of the international arbitration world. In this edition, references to U.S. and European laws have been retained (and updated), but they are no longer the sole references.

Paul Friedland is a Partner at White & Case LLP and Chair of the firm's International Arbitration Practice Group. Mr. Friedland was Chair of the Task Force that developed the recent "IBA Guidelines for Drafting International Arbitration Clauses." Mr. Friedland is Chair of the Law Committee and a Member of the Board of Directors of the AAA and a Court Member of the LCIA.
"Although it is certainly correct that Paul Friedland's new edition of Arbitration Clauses for International Contracts deserves a place on the short shelf of indispensable works on international arbitration, you will know that your practice is happily busy if this book rarely touches that shelf and instead occupies a different place, i.e. your desk.... In short, if you imagine an LLM course that is designed to prepare lawyers, whether in-house or outside counsel, to advise on international dispute resolution matters, Friedland provides a follow-up on the first month of the course, when you are on the business hot seat intead of the examination hot seat. No matter how experienced the practitioner, the heat of that business hot seat makes Friedland's measured tone and his fusion of practical experience and academic rigour an extremely valuable aid.... Arbitration Clauses for International Contracts is the product of a practitioner-scholar in complete command of his field. The book's economy of expression also manifests the discipline of an advocate who understands what his audience needs to read in order to reach sound results..."
--Arbitration International Journal, Vol. 26 No. 3 2010
"Paul D. Friedland's second edition of Arbitration Clauses for International Contracts is a must-have for all practitioners working in the burgeoning field of international arbitration. Indeed, it would not be amiss for corporate attorneys and in-house counsel drafting agreements for trans-border transactions to also have and resort to this work as well."
--Barry H. Garfinkel, Counsel at Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom, Former Co-Head of the firm's international arbitration practice group.
"Paul Friedland has written an excellent book which will be particularly useful for corporate counsel negotiating international transactions. The book covers the full spectrum of information necessary for deciding whether to use arbitration for disputes resolution, which arbitral forum to choose and factors to think about in designating arbitrators. Perhaps most useful, Friedland provides comprehensive advice on virtually all the elements which parties should consider using in disputes clauses. Practitioners will undoubtedly double check the boilerplate arbitration clauses they have been using after reading this book."
--Stephen E. Smith, former Vice President and General Counsel, Lockheed Martin Space Systems Company
"Arbitration clauses are all too frequently the Cinderella of contract negotiation. It is a considerable challenge to produce a handbook of manageable size, useful to the commercial lawyer faced with drafting such provisions and the specialist arbitration practitioner alike. That Paul Friedland has both a thorough understanding of the issues with which he deals, and considerable practical experience of how they might best be tackled, is evident from his ability to present the subject matter succinctly and with commendable clarity. The specimen clauses set out in the comprehensive appendices likewise inspire confidence, and rightly so. Mr. Friedland will not be alone in consigning to the wastebin his randomly accumulated, and, thanks to this book, now superfluous, collection of potential precedent materials."
--John Beechey, Chair, ICC International Court of Arbitration, Paris; Former Partner and Head of International Arbitration Practice, Clifford Chance, London
"Mr. Friedland has used his long experience as advocate and counselor to create an enormously useful resource for the international practitioner. The book includes not only a comprehensive discussion of the considerations that go into drafting arbitration clauses in international contracts, but an orderly series of models that will make the drafter's task infinitely easier. Anyone practicing in the field should have a copy readily at hand."
--Donald Donovan, Partner, Debevoise & Plimpton, New York and Vice-President, International Council for Commercial Arbitration (ICCA) and President American Society of International Law (ASIL)
"This book intends to provide, in an accessible format, clauses that address all the significant issues that contracting parties face when drafting dispute resolution provisions for international contracts. This feat may seem overly ambitious but Friedland quite successfully achieves it by skillfully mingling the trite and the complex, thus allowing a reader new to arbitration to become familiar with arbitration agreement draftmanship, while providing useful information and food for thought for more sophisticated readers. The author is especially to be commended for his comparative approach: Friedland tackles the drafting of dispute resolution clauses not only from a U.S. angle but also under the rules and laws of major arbitration institutions and important host countries such as France, the U.K. and Switzerland.
The book is well structured, very readable and a valuable tool for anybody called to draft an arbitration agreement to verify whether an arbitration clause is complete be it for the first time or for the 100th. It is a welcome addition to any arbitration practitioner's library."
--Swiss Arbitration Association (ASA) Bulletin
"Arbitration Clauses For International Contracts is an extremely well-written, useful and user-friendly resource, and should find its place on the bookshelves of international law practitioners and business people alike."
