Wikborg Rein has a long standing tradition of assisting clients worldwide, reflecting Norway’s history as an international shipping, trading and energy nation. A considerable portion of the client base is non-Norwegian; Western and Eastern European, North and South American, Japanese, South-East Asian and Australian. Wikborg Rein has, to a greater extent than other Norwegian law firms, chosen to develop an international network of offices and many of the firm’s partners have practiced abroad for several years. 
Wikborg Rein has a market leading international arbitration practice. We know the process, the institutions and the arbitrators. We successfully combine extensive experience of institutional and ad hoc arbitrations with our specialist sector based industry knowledge.

Our industry knowledge allows us to act in arbitrations all over the world, including in "foreign" jurisdictions with no connection with our "home" jurisdictions, other than the technical details of the case.
