International Arbitration

We’ve been established as a practice for over three decades, and several of our team have experience sitting as arbitrators themselves, holding key positions in major institutions across the world.

Your arbitration needs are cross-border by nature, and that’s how we work too. Ranked in the best 15 firms in the world by the Global Arbitration Review in 2021, our 150+ lawyers operate seamlessly as one global team, across all jurisdictions. That gives us the ability to provide you with multicultural, multilingual teams that can run arbitrations in numerous languages and advise on the content of international treaties.

We’ll support you at every stage of a dispute - and often before an issue has arisen. If we need to, we’ll guide you all the way through to the final hearing in the arbitration - and we do a lot of our own advocacy, so we can give you a continuous approach from beginning to end. We’ll always look to provide you with practical, early solutions.

When you have high-value complex commercial disputes - whether you’re in construction, energy, environmental, financial services, intellectual property, maritime or TMT - we’ve got the depth of experience in your area to help you. And our long history of working for states and state entities gives us a real insight into how they think, and how they react - which we can use to your benefit if you’re in the private sector.
