Here, you’ll find a team with the unique experience, skills and insight to provide the best legal advice. Our advisors understand your business and objectives, and possess a keen knowledge of the rules—written and unwritten—that govern arbitration proceedings. We know the arbitrators who decide the cases. Your business goals drive our lawyers. With particular depth of knowledge in the oil and gas, natural resources (including mining and forestry), hotel management, financial services, infrastructure and government sectors, we will partner with you to help ensure your success.
Leverage our global track record and relationships to navigate legal, political and practical idiosyncrasies. Our arbitration practice extends to all of the main arbitration forums and rules around the world, including such global institutions as the American Arbitration Association, the China International Economic and Trade Arbitration Commission, the International Chamber of Commerce, the International Centre for Dispute Resolution, the International Centre for Settlement of Investment Disputes, the London Court of International Arbitration, the Stockholm Chamber of Commerce, the Singapore International Arbitration Centre and many regional arbitration institutions. We also have extensive experience with ad hoc arbitration, including under the United Nations Commission on International Trade Law rules.
Gain confidence from knowing you have an experienced partner by your side. Whether in established North American or Western European arbitration locales—or in emerging regions—our team works closely with you on arbitrations under civil law, common law, international treaties and public international law. We are thoroughly familiar with all post-arbitration procedures, including judicial review and global enforcement matters.
We guide you through all stages of arbitration—from drafting the dispute resolution mechanism best suited to your circumstances through the arbitration hearing and post-arbitration enforcement to recognition of the award.
