The mission of Law Rocks to promote music education for underprivileged youth and raise funds for local nonprofit organizations by combining the power of music and the generosity of the global legal community. We accomplish our mission through epic battle of the band fundraising concerts in cities across the globe that star legal professionals-turned-rockstars. It started in 2009 at The 100 Club in London, one of the city’s most celebrated venues. Bands comprised of musically brilliant legal professionals competed against each other for charity. In 2012, Law Rocks USA began, with each band playing for the benefit of their nonprofit pick. Since then, these “battle of the bands”​ style rock concerts have spread to over 24 cities.

An Introduction to International Arbitration and the Role of Behavioural Psychology in Persuasive Advocacy.

This seminar offers an exceptional opportunity to gain insights and tools essential to succeed as a practitioner in international arbitration.

With arbitration’s heavy reliance on written and oral advocacy, expertise in persuasive communication is vital. Yet core concepts of psychology and persuasion remain overlooked both in traditional legal education and practice. This 4-hour seminar seeks to change that through interactive presentations and discussions with leading specialists in arbitration and scientific persuasion.

Students will benefit from:

A comprehensive introduction to terminology, processes, and best practices in international arbitration

An overview of cognitive biases and psychological principles shown to enhance argument persuasiveness

Real case examples demonstrating how behavioural research strengthens arbitration preparation and presentation

Direct access to top arbitration and psychology experts, with an opportunity for Q&A

An insider’s view into how knowledge from behavioural science equips practitioners with a winning edge

Gaining even basic fluency with principles of psychology and persuasion will equip students with an advantage in arbitration practice. The event will provide attendees with insights to position them for future success in advocacy for clients.

Featured Speakers:

Andrew Clarke, Director of ASL

Donald E. Vinson, PhD, Arbitration Psychology Specialist

Katie Winks, PhD, Behavioural Research Expert

Klaus Reichert, SC, International Arbitrator
