WAW 2025 Mentorship on International Arbitration in the Washington, D.C. Legal Community: How to Organically Promote an Environment of Mentorship? Moderator: Jessica Killeen (Law Clerk) Panelists: Eleanor Erney (Counsel, Hughes Hubbard & Reed) Meg Kinnear (Founding Member, Low & Kinnear Dispute Resolution) Michael Nolan (Independent Arbitrator) Cansu Aydin (Partner, Appleton Luff) Washington, D.C. hosts one of the world’s most vibrant arbitration communities, yet the path into the field can often feel unclear for those at the outset of their careers. As the practice of arbitration continues to expand and a new generation steps forward, important questions arise: how do we nurture mentorship as a culture rather than an obligation? And how can firms, institutions and individuals create spaces where knowledge and experience are shared openly and organically? This session will examine the ways in which mentorship (both formal and informal) shapes professional growth and strengthens the fabric of the community. Panelists will share personal experiences, spotlight innovative approaches to mentorship and reflect on how to foster environments where guidance flows naturally across generations. Whether you are an established arbitrator or just beginning your journey, this discussion offers an opportunity to engage in a candid exchange on building a culture of support within international arbitration.
