Nuances in enforcing arbitration agreements – Gediminas Dominas

Has the UNCITRAL Model Law really become the common language of international arbitration after 40 years? That question brought leading arbitration practitioners from across Europe to the same table.

At the practical level, one key question stood out – what happens when courts are asked to enforce arbitration agreements? WALLESS Partner Gediminas Dominas joined the panel at the conference “The Lingua Franca of International Arbitration? – 40 Years of the UNCITRAL Model Law”, alongside Agis Georgiades, Iuliana Iancu and Mihaela Maravela, moderated by Kinga Timár – bringing the Lithuanian perspective to the international conversation. On the panel’s agenda: enforcement, formal validity and scope of arbitration agreements, applicable law, arbitrability, and insolvency-related issues.
