Our expertise encompasses both commercial and investment treaty arbitration. We regularly advise on a variety of arbitrations across numerous industries such as insurance, finance, automotive, pharmaceutical and TMT in connection with M&A, joint ventures, the termination of distribution agreements, and construction arbitration. With respect to investment treaty arbitration, our team of lawyers not only has practical experience, but also comprises members having assisted the Japanese Government in the negotiations of international free trade and investment agreements.
We have a wealth of experience in international arbitrations, including ad hoc and emergency arbitrator procedures, and under the rules of the ICC, SIAC, CIETAC, AAA‐ICDR, KCAB, JCAA and other recognized bodies in Indonesia, Vietnam and Thailand.
