Flip Petillion appointed as Chairman of Ad Hoc Arbitration in the Healthcare Sector

Flip Petillion has been appointed as chairman of an ad hoc arbitration in the healthcare sector.

This appointment reflects Flip's recognized expertise in arbitration and his standing as a trusted arbitrator, whose experience spans a wide range of sectors.

In light of the confidential nature of the proceedings, no further details will be shared.

Ad hoc arbitration is a form of arbitration in which the parties themselves, together with the arbitral tribunal, determine and organize the procedural framework, rather than relying on the administrative structure of an arbitral institution. This offers the parties a high degree of flexibility to tailor the proceedings to the specific needs of their dispute, while still ensuring a neutral, binding, and efficient resolution. Ad hoc arbitration and institutional (administered) arbitration each offer distinct advantages, and the choice between them often depends on the nature of the dispute and the preferences of the parties involved.

Flip is regularly appointed as arbitrator, both in ad hoc proceedings and in arbitrations administered by leading arbitral institutions, including CEPANI, ICC, SIAC, PMAC, WIPO, CAC, Forum, C-SAR, NOMINET, and IFTA, among others, reflecting the breadth of trust placed in him across different arbitration frameworks.
