摘要

随着尼日利亚越来越多地依赖仲裁作为解决商业纠纷的机制，外国律师是否可以代表当事人参与以《2023 年仲裁和调解法》（AMA）为仲裁法的尼日利亚仲裁程序的问题已成为法律讨论的焦点。本文探讨了 1988 年《仲裁与调解法》（"ACA"）和新颁布的《仲裁与调解法》下截然不同的法律立场。通过研究《1988 年仲裁与调解法》（ACA）和新颁布的《澳大利亚仲裁法》（AMA）中截然不同的条款及其对仲裁程序和结果的（潜在）影响，本文有助于加深对尼日利亚仲裁领域不断演变的动态的理解，并为从业人员、学者和决策者提供见解。

The participation of foreign counsel in Nigeria-seated arbitration proceedings

With the growing reliance on arbitration as a mechanism for settling commercial disputes in Nigeria, the question of whether foreign counsel can represent parties in arbitration proceedings seated in Nigeria where the Arbitration and Mediation Act 2023 (‘AMA’) is adopted as the lex arbitri has become a focal point of legal discourse. This article explores the contrasting legal positions under the Arbitration and Conciliation Act 1988 (‘ACA’) and the newly enacted AMA. By examining the contrasting provisions of the ACA and the AMA, and their (potential) impact on arbitration proceedings and outcomes, this article contributes to a deeper understanding of the evolving dynamics within Nigeria’s arbitration sphere and provides insights for practitioners, scholars, and policymakers alike.
