Details

The DIFC Courts Practice is the definitive guide to the practice and procedure of the courts of the Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC), which is now firmly established as a leading international commercial court.

This major new work is endorsed by the DIFC Courts as the official companion to the rules of the DIFC. Written by a team of leading practitioners in the field, it includes the rules of the Court themselves as well as detailed commentary and incisive narrative discussion.

The first Part contains an introduction to the Court and its jurisdiction, together with a survey of recent developments of DIFC law covering jurisdiction, conduit enforcement, the Joint Judicial Committee, arbitration, contract law and other areas of substantive law, procedure, appeals and conversion of judgments. The second Part comprises the full text of the rules along with expert commentary on their application and interpretation, with comprehensive analysis of all relevant case law.

This indispensable book will be an essential resource for all those involved in litigation in the DIFC Courts, arbitration seated in the DIFC and the enforcement in the DIFC and onshore Dubai of judgments and arbitral awards from other jurisdictions.
