The Negotiator As Professional: Understanding The Competing Interests Of A Representative Negotiator, Trevor C. W. Farrow Oct 2015

The Negotiator As Professional: Understanding The Competing Interests Of A Representative Negotiator, Trevor C. W. Farrow

Trevor C. W. Farrow

This article is about lawyers as negotiators, and in particular, it is about identifying and understanding the influential and potentially competing interests that are - or at least should be - in the minds of lawyers (and potentially other third party representatives) during the overall negotiation process. While there continues to be an increasing amount of literature on the mechanics and strategies of negotiation, the underlying interests that are typically at stake in representative negotiations from the perspective of representatives - particularly negotiations involving lawyers - have not been adequately studied. Current accounts of the representative negotiator do not paint …

Globalization, International Human Rights, And Civil Procedure, Trevor C. W. Farrow Oct 2015

Globalization, International Human Rights, And Civil Procedure, Trevor C. W. Farrow

Trevor C. W. Farrow

This article discusses the modern convergence of three traditionally separate topics: globalization and international human rights on the one hand, and civil procedure on the other. Its project is twofold: first, to highlight the role of domestic legal processes and communities in the advancement of the post-World War I1 international human rights project. Second - in contemplation of the specific context of teaching civil procedure - to help bring alive the power and increasingly-global context of civil procedure for the benefit of students.

Re-Framing The Sharia Arbitration Debate, Trevor C. W. Farrow

Trevor C. W. Farrow

This article is a response to Mr. McGuinty regarding his response to religious arbitration in the province of Ontario. First, the issue is not about simply prohibiting religious tribunals.

Public Justice, Private Dispute Resolution And Democracy, Trevor C. W. Farrow Oct 2015

Public Justice, Private Dispute Resolution And Democracy, Trevor C. W. Farrow

Trevor C. W. Farrow

This paper is about the widespread and systematic privatization of the public civil justice system. In particular, it: (1) documents the move to privatize civil disputes across all aspects of the justice system (including courts, administrative tribunals and state-sanctioned arbitration regimes), (2) looks at some of the benefits and drawbacks of privatization, specifically including negative impacts on systems of democratic governance, and (3) identifies justice - rather than efficiency - as the primary benchmark by which civil justice reform initiatives should be judged.

Ethical Lawyering In A Global Community, Trevor C. W. Farrow Oct 2015

Ethical Lawyering In A Global Community, Trevor C. W. Farrow

Trevor C. W. Farrow

The pressures and opportunities of globalization have dramatically changed the nature of legal practice. How and why we practice law? For whom and whose benefit? In what contexts? And on what terms? The answers to these questions are continuously changing as a result of current global trends. The communities served by lawyers, the practice contexts in which they work and the issues that they face are increasingly diverse, complex, transnational and global in character. All of these challenges demand new competencies and raise a host of new issues about ethics and professionalism. As a threshold matter, more and more lawyers …

What Is Access To Justice?, Trevor C. W. Farrow Oct 2015

What Is Access To Justice?, Trevor C. W. Farrow

Trevor C. W. Farrow

Access to justice is the most pressing justice issue today. It has become the major focus of essentially all stakeholders in the legal community—governments, regulators, bar associations, researchers, and educators. It now needs to become an increasing topic of attention for those who use the system: the public. With all of this attention, what does the phrase “access to justice” really mean, particularly from the perspective of the public? In addition to reviewing the access to justice literature and policy initiatives, this article develops a public centered understanding of access to justice. It does so primarily by reporting on a …
