Bevan Brittan - Services

An increasingly significant part of our practice is in international arbitration.

We have experience of dealing with arbitrations under all of the main institutional arbitration rules, including the ICC, LCIA and UNCITRAL Rules. We also have experience of a wide variety of applications to the High Court under the Arbitration Act 1996, including applications for the appointment of arbitrators, removal of arbitrators on grounds of bias, stay applications, serious irregularity challenges and appeals on points of law.

Recent examples of arbitrations we have been involved in are:

ICC arbitration for a West African corporation in dispute with an international oil company concerning the contractual implications of a purported revocation by a Government of an offshore oil prospecting licence.
UNCITRAL arbitration for a former Russian Republic against a major banking consortium in an concerning a dispute over a $0.5 billion loan.
