About

Provided by Kirkland & Ellis

Kirkland represents clients in international arbitrations under the auspices of all the leading international arbitral institutions, including the International Chamber of Commerce (ICC), the London Court of International Arbitration (LCIA), the Singapore International Arbitration Centre (SIAC), the Hong Kong International Arbitration Center (HKIAC), the Arbitration Institute of the Stockholm Chamber of Commerce (SCC) and the American Arbitration Association (AAA). Kirkland also regularly represents clients in ad-hoc arbitrations, including arbitrations pursuant to the UNCITRAL rules. The group has extensive experience in representing clients in investment treaty arbitrations both ad hoc and under the auspices of the International Centre for Settlement of Investment Disputes (ICSID).

The group is experienced in all aspects of international arbitration, from drafting dispute resolution clauses to representing clients in high profile, cross-border, bet-the-company complex arbitrations to serving as arbitrators. The group’s strength lies in dealing with cases that are cross-border and involve multiple jurisdictions, as well as handling any related court proceedings. The group also draws upon a broad range of disciplines to assist their clients in solving their clients’ cross-border legal and regulatory problems in the most expedient and effective manner possible, always taking a client-centric approach.
