Arbitration

Overview

Our well-experienced arbitration team professionals are members of leading domestic and international arbitral institutions such as London Maritime Arbitrations Associations (LMAA), Chartered Institute of Arbitrators (CIArb), Insurance Arbitration Commission (STKArb) and they are frequently appointed as arbitrators and instructed as expert witnesses in arbitrations. Working closely with our clients throughout the domestic and international arbitration practices, we have a unique understanding of arbitration process in large and high-value commercial disputes.

Our arbitration team understands claimants and respondents businesses and objectives and knows how an arbitration proceeding is governed. We have also improved our arbitration experience across our key sectors such as maritime and international trade, natural resources, banking and finance, transportation, construction and engineering, real estate, hotels and leisure, insurance and reinsurance, pharmaceutical, sports, telecommunications, and any other sectors in which disputes can be resolved through arbitration. We know where the academic knowledge must and should be combined with practical approach within the arbitration practice, and this awareness allows us not only to commence and handle the case but also to guide our clients whether there is another option or not before the arbitration process.
