We have assisted our clients through both local and international arbitrations, we have guided them on arbitration options at the contractual negotiation stage and at the conclusion and enforcement stage, including enforcement of foreign arbitration rulings.
A properly considered approach to arbitration ensures that contracting parties proceed with confidence knowing that any uncertainty will be resolved in a fair and agreed manner and that they can rely on the application of their chosen law, this confidence is particularly important where business relationships extend across foreign jurisdictions that neither party has legal familiarity with, where appropriate parties can also choose to rely on the finality provided by the arbitration process whilst ensuring ongoing relationships with their trading partners.
