WHAT WE DO

commercial arbitration

Domestic and international commercial arbitration

Domestic and international commercial arbitration has been a cornerstone of our practice for almost twenty years. Our experience in this field is second to none, whether in institutional or ad hoc arbitration proceedings.

We advise and represent clients in complex, sensitive commercial arbitration proceedings in a variety of sectors.

Our lawyers are recognised as being among the best experts and act both as counsel and arbitrator; the arbitrator role is complementary to each partner’s counsel role, and enriches that role.
