Representation
International Commercial Arbitration
Representation of clients in international commercial arbitration proceedings under major institutional rules and ad hoc frameworks, in complex and high-stakes cross-border disputes.
Investment Arbitration
Particular experience in investment arbitration, including disputes involving States and State-owned entities, and matters raising issues of public international law, jurisdiction, treaty interpretation and sovereign conduct.
Arbitration-Related Litigation
Representation and advisory work in court proceedings connected to arbitration, including annulment, enforcement and jurisdiction-related matters before domestic courts.
Collaboration
The practice is designed to function through structured collaboration, assembling teams according to the requirements of each case. This approach reflects the view that effective dispute resolution depends on precision in team composition, not comprehensiveness of in-house resources.
Strategic & Tailored Services
Merits Review & Case Assessment
Independent early-stage assessment of the merits of a dispute, including legal strengths and weaknesses, jurisdictional and admissibility issues, procedural risks and strategic positioning. Where appropriate, this assessment may be complemented by a 360° analysis, including enforcement prospects, recoverability considerations and asset-related issues, allowing clients to assess whether arbitration is, in practical and strategic terms, the appropriate course of action. This service is also offered in support of third-party funding assessments, providing funders and funded parties with an independent and rigorous evaluation of a dispute.
Negotiation & Dispute Strategy Assessment
Strategic advice on whether, when and how to engage in negotiations, taking into account leverage, timing, procedural posture and broader commercial, political or institutional considerations.
Independent Second Opinions
Independent strategic reviews for clients, boards, or counsel at any stage of a dispute or arbitration, particularly in high-stakes or complex matters where an external and experienced perspective is required.
