Keidan Harrison Delivers Seamless Multi-Jurisdictional Arbitration with TrialView

Keidan Harrison successfully utilised TrialView’s AI-powered platform to manage a complex, fully remote, and multi-jurisdictional LCIA arbitration hearing involving a multi-million dollar machinery purchase dispute.

The Challenge

The case centered on a high-value dispute arising from a machinery purchase agreement, requiring a fully remote hearing across five different jurisdictions, including, England, Scotland, Abu Dhabi, Dubai and Italy. 

With the Keidan Harrison team based in the UK, opposing counsel in Dubai, and witnesses and Tribunal members located in Abu Dhabi, Italy, and Scotland, the primary challenge was ensuring seamless document management and real-time presentation across these locations.

In an arbitration of this size with so many documents, there was a significant risk of delays from improper document and evidence management, so Keidan Harrison required a solution that would eliminate this risk and allow all participants to remain in sync, regardless of their physical location.

The Solution

The team from Keidan Harrison, led by Partner Luke Tucker Harrison and supported by Ben Rutledge and Nathan Tidd, turned to TrialView for a platform that would manage their documents and evidence and enhance their legal strategy, but also allow them to collaborate effectively with all parties involved in the case.

By using TrialView’s advanced AI functions, including the AI search and navigation tools, the team were able to efficiently and quickly locate and display evidence to witnesses under cross-examination. Not only did this allow them to seamlessly work through the case, but it also helped them to make queries about the evidence portfolio in real time, ensuring that they always stayed one step ahead.
