Podcast: Quantifying International Disputes
Highlights of the podcast: Quantifying International Disputes
A few takeaways from the conversation include:
- When assessing damages and valuation in international disputes. Herfried recommends that counsel proceed in four steps:
- Identifying the type of contract at issue (whether it is an interchange contract, for the exchange of goods or services for money, or whether it is an
income-generating contract); - Identifying the measure of damages permitted under the applicable law;
- Identifying the evidence available to support the structuring of a legal claim;
- Maintaining a solid understanding of the applicable law.
- A vital piece of the puzzle is to select a high-quality quantum expert to help present a client’s case.
- How different approaches to damages and valuation are being considered in the ongoing work of UNCITRAL Working Group III, which may influence future cases in this field.
