Azam & Rai was engaged by a Pakistan-based software development company in its dispute with a US software company arising out of source code delivery and payment issues under a software development agreement and a separate escrow agreement. The dispute was complicated by the fact that the software development agreement gave exclusive jurisdiction to the courts of law in St. Louis, Missouri, USA whereas the related escrow agreement, which relied heavily on the software development agreement, provided for resolution of all disputes through arbitration under the American Arbitration Association's Commercial Arbitration Rules.
