Milbank International Arbitration partner Michael Nolan and associate Kamel Aitelaj as well as IP Litigation partner Chris Gaspar and special counsel Nathaniel Browand recently authored two chapters in Global Arbitration Review’s The Guide to IP Arbitration. The guide, published in February 2021, provides an in-depth look at various international IP-related disputes and sets out how arbitration can be tailored to meet the needs of IP owners, dispelling some of the myths surrounding its use. The five parts of the guide mirror the life cycle of disputes.
The chapter titled “Strategic Considerations Once a Dispute Has Arisen” explores the somewhat unusual backdrop against which parties to IP disputes find themselves in arbitration rather than national courts or administrative bodies for intellectual property. The chapter titled “Intellectual Property Is the ‘Investment’: Arbitrating against Sovereigns” provides an overview, as well as practical procedural guideposts for potentially high-stakes patent arbitrations.
