    Butterworths Hong Kong Alternative Dispute Resolution Law Handbook is a detailed work of reference containing the newly effective Arbitration Ordinance (Cap 609) and the Mediation Ordinance (Cap 619). 

    The new Arbitration Ordinance replaces the former major legislation (Cap 341) pertaining to arbitration law and practice in Hong Kong. The new Mediation Ordinance provides a regulatory framework for certain aspects of Mediation, including confidentiality and privilege. 

    The ordinances reinforce Hong Kong's role in Alternative Dispute Resolution. Geographic location, legal infrastructure, experience and government support make Hong Kong a leading centre for dispute resolution in Asia-Pacific. 

    This Handbook presents the consolidated text of the Ordinances in a convenient and up-to-date form with section-by-section annotations. Annotations include references to cases assisting in the interpretation of each section, relevant rules of court, definitions of words and phrases, discussion on practical aspects of application and contentious issues. Hong Kong and UK cases, related legislation and other authoritative materials are identified and discussed in detail. All annotations are fully cross-referenced with comprehensive tables of cases and legislation. 

    This Handbook is an invaluable source of information for arbitration practitioners, legal practitioners, in-house counsel, business leaders, entrepreneurs, students and anyone interested in the arbitration and mediation laws and practices governing Hong Kong.
