Please join CPR Institute for a virtual CLE event sponsored by CPR Institute's Arbitration Committee. The program is free for CPR members, CPR Neutrals, and LCLD Fellows.

Ms. Dadwal will speak with Mr. Kry on his representative work against sovereigns like Albania, Iraq, and Kyrgyzstan , and they will use the discussion to share insights on how sovereign immunity shapes jurisdictional defenses, award enforcement, and the durability of arbitral outcomes.
