JAMS International Arbitration Centers Officially Open in Los Angeles and New York
"International arbitration is playing an increasingly important role as the world's legal and business communities become more global and disputes become more complex. Access to premiere venues is more important than ever, as attorneys travel from around the world to represent their clients," said Chris Poole , JAMS president and CEO. "We are excited to officially open the Centers and to support practitioners from around the world in conducting the most effective proceedings. The JAMS International Arbitration Centers complement our extensive resources for international arbitration, and we look forward to continued expansion in the coming years."
JAMS international arbitrators are familiar with their local legal communities, cultures and environments, and attorneys and clients benefit from our cost- and time-efficient approach to international arbitration. The facilities feature upgraded amenities to provide efficient, comfortable international arbitration proceedings. In addition to the usual JAMS features, such as JAMS Cafés and Business Centers, the Centers will have the following:
Among the first in California , the JAMS Los Angeles International Arbitration Center is located in downtown
Los Angeles , close to leading hotels and restaurants. As
California Senate Bill No. 766 became law this year, allowing out-of-state and non-U.S. lawyers to participate in international arbitrations, the Centers will support
California in becoming a new and appealing choice for attorneys to seat their international arbitrations.
