Poorly drafted arbitration clauses—so-called “pathological clauses”—continue to cause costly, avoidable disputes for companies operating across borders. These errors often lead to unenforceability, delays, or conflicting outcomes.
In this practical panel discussion, we explore the latest developments that make arbitration clause drafting more critical than ever. From the HKIAC 2024 Rules to the 2025 Mainland–Hong Kong GBA interpretation, and the surge in AI, ESG, and multi-contract disputes, corporate lawyers must update their playbooks.
The panel will also draw on Practical Law’s arbitration content library to spotlight recurring drafting risks and solutions. You'll leave with a sharper lens on how to future-proof your clauses, whether reviewing templates, negotiating contracts, or advising on complex deals, and sanctions. Our panel will explore the practical implications for corporate compliance, strategies for mitigating legal and reputational risk, and how to respond proactively to the evolving U.S. enforcement environment in Asia.

Join Greenberg Traurig’s David Zetoony to explore the fast-growing world of privacy litigation, which has exploded in recent years and now represents one of the largest areas to result in class action litigation. This CLE program will discuss the privacy issues that have caused litigation waves (i.e., entire industries impacted for more than a year), trends (dozens of complaints for more than 6 months), and micro-trends (new and emerging theories). Attendees will discover the:
Widespread impact and theories of privacy litigation affecting many—if not most—companies today.
Lesser-known theories that are on the rise and gaining momentum and increasingly being tested in court.
Wide-spread theories that are declining in use and may soon fade from active litigation.
