Members of Chambers are regularly instructed to act in arbitration cases governed by the rules of leading international arbitral institutions, including the LCIA, UNCITRAL, ICC, DIAC, ICSID, and SCC.

​

The subject matter of these disputes spans diverse commercial sectors, including construction and engineering, energy and natural resources, banking and finance, technology and telecommunications, joint ventures and shareholder disputes, international trade, sovereign bond disputes, asset expropriation matters, and issues involving international sanctions. Our members have particular expertise in both investment treaty dispute settlement (ISDS) and complex commercial disputes.

​

Several of our members possess comprehensive expertise across the full spectrum of arbitration-related court applications, including challenges to enforcement of arbitral awards under the New York Convention, jurisdictional challenges, anti-suit and anti-arbitration injunctions, applications for interim relief. Members regularly represent and advise both sovereign states and private companies in high-profile arbitrations and participate in ancillary proceedings before national courts.

​

Recent examples of our work include: defending states in investment treaty arbitrations concerning asset expropriation across the oil and gas, retail, construction and banking sectors; handling complex sovereign bond disputes and international sanctions matters; and representing a private art collector in a dispute against an art gallery arising from an investment and consignment agreement.
