International arbitration can be a swift, flexible option for those looking to resolve a dispute. Careful preparation of all stages of a case is essential to securing the very best conclusion.
Arbitration is a way for international businesses to resolve disputes quickly through the use of an independent panel or tribunal that is chosen by, or on behalf of, the parties involved.
It is a private process, does not involve the parties going to court and is seen by many as a flexible and fair way of concluding a disagreement.
Arbitration can be used in a wide range of situations and business areas. These business areas include:
- Disputes relating to joint ventures and shareholders.
- Marine and international trade.
- Crypto and digital assets.
- Oil and gas.
- Energy and natural resources.
- Construction.
In the realm of high-value international arbitration, clients often encounter a host of intricate challenges that necessitate swift and strategic intervention. Disputes of significant magnitude, spanning diverse jurisdictions and complex legal systems, can give rise to urgent concerns.
These may range from the potential for conflicting legal actions in foreign courts through to the risk of asset dissipation or irreparable harm. At Rahman Ravelli, we understand the gravity of these issues and specialise in delivering effective solutions.
Through the strategic application of court-based interim relief measures to support arbitration, including powerful tools like anti-suit injunctions and freezing orders, we proactively safeguard our clients' interests.
These measures serve to halt proceedings in foreign jurisdictions that may run counter to the arbitration agreement or freeze assets which might be dissipated - providing our clients with the assurance that their rights are being diligently protected.
