Venue shopping
Venue shopping is the process of selecting the most advantageous location to hold a legal case or arbitration. Parties consider factors like the court's neutrality, procedural rules, costs, and potential biases of the venue. By choosing a specific court or jurisdiction, they aim to increase their chances of favorable outcomes, reduce costs, or achieve strategic advantages. Essentially, it's about finding the best "fit" for your legal case based on practical and strategic factors surrounding the venue.
