Alternative Dispute Resolution tools can be invaluable in resolving disputes in the restructuring and insolvency context. But they can also present pitfalls and risks that creditors, insolvency practitioners and their advisers should consider.
This seminar examines recent trends in the use of ADR tools to resolve restructuring and insolvency-related disputes. The seminar also considers how ADR requirements can arguably cut across insolvency processes and recent cases on how the courts address those arguments.
