Our international arbitration lawyers regularly appear in arbitrations (institutional and ad hoc) and in arbitration related court proceedings. We also act on the enforcement of arbitral awards in Australia and overseas.
We advise on draft arbitration clauses for use in cross-border agreements and when disputes arise we help clients to:
- choose a suitable dispute resolution method
- select and appoint arbitrators
- identify where arbitrations should take place.
We act in arbitrations across many industry sectors including construction, telecommunications, financial services, joint ventures and other corporate transactions and reinsurance. Our lawyers act in World Intellectual Property Organisation (WIPO) domain name arbitrations and CIETAC (China-based) arbitrations. We advise investors in emerging markets and financial institutions relying on bilateral investment treaties (BITs).
Many of our lawyers have also worked with specialist and leading international arbitration practices in Europe and Northern America.
