Chambers Review
DLA Piper LLP has a respected offering that is particularly admired for its impressive regional footprint and membership of a worldwide network, providing the capability to support arbitration mandates with teams based in Australia, China, Japan, Singapore, South Korea and Thailand. The team has recently witnessed an increase in activity involving the wider region, including Timor-Leste and Indonesia. The group is prominently active on the arbitration matters arising from the development of major construction, infrastructure, and energy and resources-related projects across the region, including a number linked to the aviation and shipping sectors. It is valued for its persuasive advocacy, excellent case management skills and sensitivity to local cultural considerations.
Sydney-based Gitanjali Bajaj and Hong Kong-based Ernest Yang co-head the Asia-Pacific international arbitration team.
