Arbitration
Arbitration is a proven means of resolving complex commercial disputes efficiently, confidentially, and with a high degree of procedural flexibility. Especially internationally, it offers an attractive and effective alternative to court litigation.
We represent clients in commercial and sports-related arbitration proceedings under the rules of the International Chamber of Commerce (ICC), the Swiss Arbitration Centre (SAC), the German Institution of Arbitration (DIS), the Vienna International Arbitral Centre (VIAC), the London Court of International Arbitration (LCIA), the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS), the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO), as well as in ad hoc arbitration proceedings.
Our involvement begins with the careful drafting of arbitration clauses and extends to the realistic assessment of prospects of a case, the development of robust case strategies, and efficient representation throughout the arbitral proceedings. We also provide support in annulment proceedings before the Swiss Federal Supreme Court and in the recognition and enforcement of domestic and foreign arbitral awards.
In addition, we regularly serve as arbitrators and draw on a trusted international network of experienced partners, enabling us to competently handle cross-border disputes.
