In an increasingly multi-polar world, arbitration has become a preferred choice for resolving commercial disputes.
Our team of commercial dispute lawyers have an in depth understanding of the entire arbitral process, as well as the commercial awareness and versatility needed to resolve even the most intractable conflicts.
Eldwick has acted in commercial arbitrations on behalf of corporations, quasi-state entities and private individuals under all of the leading institutional rules, including the London Court of International Arbitration (LCIA), International Court of Arbitration (ICC), London Maritime Arbitrators’ Association (LMAA), and the United National Commission on International Trade Law (UNCITRAL). We have also advised state entities on investment arbitration, subject to the rules of the International Centre for Settlement of Investment Disputes (ICSID).
We can advise you from the outset of an arbitration, including during the pre-arbitration phase, all the way through the final hearing. In addition, we are often instructed to bring litigation in support of arbitration, including in relation to the recognition, enforcement and setting aside of arbitral awards, as well as obtaining urgent interim relief.
