Experience

I am an experienced international arbitration practitioner.  That means I’ve acted as counsel, arbitrator, or tribunal secretary in institutional and ad hoc proceedings in a variety of sectors and industries across five continents (so far!).  Matters are often what is termed “complex” in the industry and involve multiple parties and/or multiple contracts, in high-stakes or bet-the-company disputes that necessitate experienced strategic and procedural stewardship.

When the need arises, I have also represented – or coordinated the representation of – clients in litigations related to arbitration seeking or defending against court-assisted injunctive relief, enforcement and set aside.

I have also represented clients before state and federal courts in the US, and in settlement negotiations and mediations.

These matters include, inter alia:

As Counsel
