Dear Reader, Welcome to the 19th edition of ICLG Litigation & Dispute Resolution, published by Global Legal Group. This publication provides corporate counsel and international practitioners with comprehensive jurisdiction-by-jurisdiction guidance to litigation and dispute resolution laws and regulations around the world, and is also available at www.iclg.com. This year, four expert analysis chapters cover topics including whether dating apps owe their users a duty of care, civil and criminal enforcement in Thailand arising from international fraud, key judicial developments in the last year in Indian courts and arbitration, and AI regulation and litigation. The question-and-answer chapters, which in this edition cover 22 jurisdictions, provide detailed answers to common questions raised by professionals dealing with litigation and dispute resolution laws and regulations. As always, this publication has been written by leading lawyers and industry specialists, for whose invaluable contributions the editors and publishers are extremely grateful. Global Legal Group would also like to extend special thanks to contributing editor Greg Lascelles of Hausfeld for his leadership, support and expertise in bringing this project to fruition.
