EVERLEGAL partner discusses challenges and transformation of international arbitration in an interview for Ukrainian Law Firms

Arbitration in Transition: Technology, Strategy, and Human Judgment.

International arbitration is evolving rapidly, shaped by increasingly complex cross-border disputes, the rise of AI tools, and the demand for faster, more efficient proceedings. Today’s practitioners must balance confidentiality concerns, cultural nuances, as well as strategic advocacy to deliver the best outcomes for their clients.

Vsevolod Volkov, Partner at EVERLEGAL, shared his vision of what lies behind the headlines in a conversation with Ukrainian Law Firms: from managing client expectations and working with foreign law to exploring the possibilities and limits of artificial intelligence in legal practice. During the interview, he answered key questions, including:

  • What sort of challenges would you receive as a lawyer at the stage when you accept an arbitration-related assignment from a client?
  • When talking about foreign law in arbitration, what is your approach to establishing it?
  • What is your experience of the use of AI arbitration projects?
  • As the arbitration process progresses, where do you see the important practical points or areas of improvement for Ukrainian arbitration practitioners?
  • In your arbitration experience have you had cases when claims in the arbitration were completely different from the pre-arbitration phase or changed in the course of arbitration?
  • Witness statements in arbitration. How important are they?
  • What is your attitude towards amicable settlements in arbitration?
  • And finally, as any arbitration ends there is always the temptation to publish in the media that you played a part in it. What is your attitude towards such a publication?
