Commercial & investment arbitration

We have substantial experience of successfully resolving complex, sensitive and high-value international and domestic arbitrations, as well as mounting and defending challenges to awards and enforcing awards in the UK and abroad. We also advise on investment treaty claims.

We regularly act on behalf of UK and international companies, partnerships, hedge funds and high-net-worth individuals in arbitrations conducted under all the major institutional rules, including those of the LCIA, ICC, LMAA, GAFTA and UNCITRAL, as well as in ad-hoc arbitrations.

Our technical expertise and experience, combined with our excellent client care and largely  conflict-free practice, make us a very attractive alternative to the large City of London and international law firms for clients seeking to resolve their disputes effectively through arbitration. We have extensive experience in both bringing and defending challenges to arbitral awards (particularly those brought under ss67, 68 and 69 of the Arbitration Act 1996) and enforcing and resisting enforcement of awards.

Our lawyers also have experience in all types of alternative dispute resolution (ADR), including mediation, expert determination and early neutral evaluation.
