Documentary and Expert Evidence in Arbitration

The chosen dispute-resolution mechanism may be as important as the obligations contained in a contract. Arbitration evidence should be organized around disputed facts and applicable procedural rules.

What to keep in mind

Build document chronologies, preserve digital evidence, define expert questions and manage confidential materials.

Poor chain of custody or unsupported expert assumptions can weaken even a strong claim.

Distinctions often confused

Document production in arbitration is not identical to court discovery in every jurisdiction.
