An integral part of O’Melveny’s premier Dispute Resolution practice, our International Arbitration group arbitrates complex disputes for clients arising from global transactions anywhere in the world.
With international arbitration lawyers based in the key arbitration centers in Asia, Europe and the United States, we assist clients through the lifecycle of the dispute process. This includes dispute resolution clauses, pre-arbitral negotiations, advice on selecting the tribunal, arbitration proceedings, litigation arising from arbitration and advocacy at hearings, and related issues such as pre-arbitration attachments of assets and enforcement actions.
Every arbitration is different, reflecting factors such as the nature of the dispute, nationality of the parties, background of the arbitral tribunal, the institutional rules (if any) governing the arbitration, and the seat of the arbitration. Members of our team have diverse cultural and jurisprudential backgrounds, an international perspective, and familiarity with various legal systems and rules, arbitrators, institutions and expert witnesses. We have represented and advised clients in the most common arbitral seats and under all major leading arbitral rule systems, including the ICC, LCIA, HKIAC, SIAC, CIETAC, ICSID, SCC, JCAA, and AAA / ICDR.
