We have a wide range of experience acting in arbitrations, and in litigation concerning arbitrations. Our members have extensive experience in the various institutional arbitration regimes, including the Hong Kong International Arbitration Centre (HKIAC), the Singapore International Arbitration Centre (SIAC), the International Chamber of Commerce (ICC), the London Court of International Arbitration (LCIA), and others. We are also frequently involved in ad hoc references, and often act in arbitrations that take place outside of Hong Kong.

Our expertise in arbitration spans a number of sectors including banking and financial services, construction, energy, infrastructure, insurance, manufacturing, mining, pharmaceuticals and telecoms. Our work also spans a number of geographies including Russia and CIS, Africa, Singapore, China, Middle East and elsewhere.

In addition to acting in arbitrations themselves, members have considerable experience of dealing with litigation relating to arbitrations, such as regarding the construction and validity of arbitration agreements, the conduct of arbitrations, the removal of arbitrators, the granting of interim remedies, the challenging of arbitral awards in the English Court and the enforcement of awards and appeals. We also often act in substantial and complex Commercial Court claims relating to arbitration concerning allegations of fraud, dishonesty and forgery, showing the strong overlap between this area and our other expertise.
