In the wake of the Court of Appeal's 2023 decision in James Churchill v Merthyr Tydfil County Borough Council, which allows courts to mandate Alternative #Dispute #Resolution, the push toward mandatory ADR has continued, with the aim of streamlining dispute resolution and reducing costs. Following the decision, mandatory mediation was introduced for small claims, the Civil Procedure Rule Committee commissioned a consultation on the courts’ power to compel parties to engage in #ADR and the Civil Mediation Council announced a new mediation standards board. In an article first published by Law360, Ned Beale and Edward Nyman consider these recent developments and what they mean for the future of ADR, including a round-up of proposals by the Civil Mediation Council, the Centre for Effective Dispute Resolution and the Chartered Institute of Arbitrators. https://bit.ly/3AKLQxY

We agree with The Female Fraud Forum: our Co-Head of Commercial Disputes Lucy Pert always has good advice!
Don’t be afraid to take risks. You can experiment, move firms, move jurisdictions, go in-house, take those extra weeks of maternity leave. Your career is long, so don’t feel that you need to reach a destination and enjoy the journey! We love this advice from our September Monday Monthly Member Lucy Pert of Co-Head of the Commercial Disputes Team at Hausfeld’s. If you would like to be featured as our MMM, or nominate a friend or colleague, please get in touch with our Publicity Secretary Ilana Baines at [email protected].

Hausfeld partner Thomas Höppner was recently interviewed by Horizont on the increasing #antitrust pressure on Google in both the US and the EU, and the potential implications of a break-up. Read the full interview here: https://lnkd.in/e63W4UsF
“Google Faces Increasing Compliance Pressure as a Break-up Becomes More Likely” Germany’s largest marketing journal interviewed me on the impact of US and EU #antitrust cases on the #media landscape, but the (uncomfortably oversized) photo left no space for a key point I’ve emphasized since 2009: Alphabet Inc. has systematically entered into revenue-share agreements and offered over 100 services seemingly for free to build a protective moat around its golden castle, Google #Search (#Ads), composed of three layers: 1) Ensuring preferred distribution and prominence cross all devices and channels to exploit end users’ status quo and saliency biases. 2) Securing access to all relevant #data sources (personal and IP) to enhance relative product quality. 3) Depriving premium #publishers of such assets to limit their ability to scale up and offer a better ad performance that shifts ad budgets from Google. These tactics span across various markets and antitrust cases along the entire digital value chain. Effective remedies to address Alphabet's market power must consider the links between these measures and markets. The cases 𝘎𝘰𝘰𝘨𝘭𝘦 𝘚𝘦𝘢𝘳𝘤𝘩 (𝘚𝘩𝘰𝘱𝘱𝘪𝘯𝘨), 𝘈𝘯𝘥𝘳𝘰𝘪𝘥, 𝘈𝘥𝘚𝘦𝘯𝘴𝘦, 𝘗𝘳𝘪𝘷𝘢𝘤𝘺 𝘚𝘢𝘯𝘥𝘣𝘰𝘹, 𝘕𝘦𝘸𝘴 𝘚𝘩𝘰𝘸𝘤𝘢𝘴𝘦, and 𝘈𝘥 𝘛𝘦𝘤𝘩 should not be seen in isolation. They are connected by what Google’s chief economist Hal Varian once called "Googlenomics" (native ad alert: explained in my book 𝘋𝘪𝘨𝘪𝘵𝘢𝘭 𝘈𝘥𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘵𝘪𝘴𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘎𝘰𝘰𝘨𝘭𝘦 𝘌𝘤𝘰𝘴𝘺𝘴𝘵𝘦𝘮). An English courtesy translation of the full interview can be found here https://lnkd.in/e63W4UsF Where do you see Google heading? #GoogleNonCompliance #CompetitionMatters
