With decades of experience, as a trader and as a member of the International Cotton Association, serving for many years on the Rules Committee and one of the members of a specialist committee called The Arbitration Strategy Committee, my experience offers a unique insight into understanding and navigating the often complex ICA Rules and Arbitration process.

 

Due to an in depth understanding of the rules governing both purchase and sales contracts, Tim North Consulting can help both buyers and sellers avoid many pit falls that can occur both at time of negotiation and during the process of executing contracts.

 

A key service is to help educate either buyers or sellers about how to best protect themselves and achieve desired results when entering into a contract.

 

Issues over carrying charges and reverse carrying charges can be avoided by consulting and education. 

 

On the basis that “A negotiated settlement is so much better than a forced settlement” Tim North Consulting can employ many years of experience to help parties come together and create an amicable settlement so that costly and often lengthy arbitration can be avoided.

 

Speaking to groups or helping individuals understand the complexities of rules and contracts is another service that we provide. The willingness to travel to on site venues provides added value in education services.

 

Helping Parties understand the process involved in applying for arbitration and what to expect is essential when contemplating this important step when negotiations have broken down.

 

Assistance in preparing submissions that accurately and succinctly describe a Claimant’s reasons for arbitration is another vital service that Tim North Consulting provides. Decades of both Chairing and participating in Tribunals for Arbitration provide some unique insights in how to best prepare a case. Likewise, those Responding to an Arbitration can gain immensely by having an experienced arbitrator help prepare their response to submissions.
