International Arbitration
As modern business grows ever more international, so the need for resolving disputes outside of national courts increases. Our International Arbitration Group has the skills and experience to ensure that such disputes are resolved in the most practical and cost effective way from start to finish, without compromising results.
Our arbitration lawyers are highly experienced in both international and domestic arbitration across a variety of industries. We have acted on arbitrations concluded under all of the major sets of arbitration rules including those of the International Chamber of Commerce (ICC), London Court of International Arbitration (LCIA), the American Arbitration Association (AAA), United Nations Commission on International Trade Law (UNCITRAL), World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO), Independent Film & Television Alliance (IFTA), and the Court of Arbitration for Sport, as well as in ad hoc arbitrations. Partners in the group also sit periodically as arbitrators.
