Dentons’ world renowned international arbitration team works seamlessly across offices and regions to assist clients from the onset of a dispute, through to enforcement of an arbitral award. We are familiar with the major institutional and procedural rules and we know the arbitrators who decide cases.
As a global law firm with presence in over 85 countries, we find ourselves a go-to firm for both Mainland Chinese parties to Hong Kong arbitration (including State Owned Enterprises) and international clients (typically from the US and Europe).
Our team has also regularly represented clients in arbitrations administered by regional and international arbitration institutions, such as Hong Kong International Arbitration Centre (HKIAC), International Chamber of Commerce (ICC), China International Economic and Trade Arbitration Commission (CIETAC), Singapore International Arbitration (SIAC), and Shanghai International Arbitration Center (SHIAC).
We have extensive experience in handling jurisdictional challenges against arbitration proceedings, applying for interim relief (such as asset preservation orders in China) in aid of arbitral proceedings, and representing claimants in enforcing Hong Kong and foreign arbitral awards.

Dentons' well-established arbitration team is regularly sought out by both domestic and international clients for advice and advocacy in ICC and HKIAC arbitrations.

Our case was very complex and they helped us to understand the process and the law, which were not familiar to us.
They are very international in Hong Kong, with lawyers from across the world, including the UK and Mainland China. The many offices across the world are very helpful also.
All members of the team are very knowledgeable and able to contribute to positive outcomes.
