  • Summary

    This chapter examines the regulation of counsel within international commercial courts, with particular attention given to such courts in Qatar, Dubai, Abu Dhabi and Singapore. The chapter begins by assessing debate on counsel ethics within international arbitration. Because debate within international arbitration is more developed, it offers a background for identifying challenges endemic to the ethical regulation of transnational lawyering in international commercial courts. The chapter then identifies three regulatory approaches to regulating counsel practising before these courts. It is argued that this diversity affords due space to the distinct institutional structures and needs of the various courts and that it would be imprudent and unnecessary to pursue greater harmonization.
