Inhalt:
This liber amicorum celebrates the 75th birthday of Michael E. Schneider, a leading - indeed, iconic - figure in the field of international dispute resolution and co-founder of the world-renowned law firm LALIVE. Michaels creativity and dedication as counsel, as arbitrator, as academic, and as leader in numerous arbitral institutions and associations have inspired, and continue to inspire, arbitration practitioners from all around the world. The book is essentially a collection of war stories written by practitioners who have worked with him or witnessed him in action at close range. Their aim is to share experiences and solutions found to challenging situations in practice, in particular in the context of arbitration hearings. The essays highlight Michaels boundless energy, creative thinking, and questioning of conventional ideas as we see him (for example) defusing unusual incidents before they grow unmanageable, dealing with counsel Xs delay tactics, and masterfully restoring reasonable balance and symmetry in the hearing room. There are valuable lessons here too about cross-examination methods and time management in arbitrating cases involving construction, industrial engineering and infrastructure projects, investment and other disputes involving states, natural resources (particularly oil and gas), environment, telecommunications, joint ventures, and more. Michaels expertise in managing large and complex disputes and leading teams of specialists, including lawyers, from various fields and cultural backgrounds, shines forth as well
