    Securities Arbitration Procedure Manual, now in a completely updated edition, is a two-volume manual that is widely acknowledged as the essential reference in the field of securities arbitration. It systematically describes the issues that arise in a dispute, how to evaluate the merits of a case, and how to prepare and present cases to arbitration panels anywhere in the country. In the latest update to the Fifth Edition, David E. Robbins updates his work to reflect current developments, such as new FINRA rules and procedures, negligent misrepresentation and breach of fiduciary duty cases, "manifest disregard" to vacate awards, ponzi schemes, and best practices before arbitrators.
