Arbitration

Arbitration

With an area exclusively dedicate to conflict resolution through arbitration, we have advised national and multinational clients, both in ad hoc arbitrations and in arbitration proceedings regulated under the rules of the main local and international arbitration institutions.

Aiming at offering strategic solutions that suit the interests of our clients, we have worked in disputes involving a variety of sectors, such as, Pharmaceuticals, Automotive, Health, Beverages, Oil, Gas, Tobacco, Real Estate, Chemicals, and the Stock Market.

We have experience with several arbitration chambers, such as the Brazil-Canada Chamber of Commerce, the Conciliation, Mediation and Arbitration Chamber of CIESP/FIESP, the American Chamber of Commerce, and the Market arbitration Chamber. We have also acted together with arbitrators, in some proceedings, what enables us to understand the point of view of the arbitrators and their main concerns, generating a competitive advantage for our clients during the arbitration proceeding.

Our experience includes a case against a real estate allotment company due to lack of compliance with the allotment contract for the implementation of a real estate project, a case against an entrepreneur, arising from the acquisition of a chain of ophthalmology clinics by an important American company, a case against a Brazilian oil industry company seeking indemnification due to the depreciation of the company stock arising from a corruption case revealed through an operation of the Brazilian authorities to investigate money laundering schemes, among others.

Being fully aware that arbitration is a field of the law in constant development and, more and more present as a means of dispute resolution in complex commercial contracts, our practice involves the elaboration of enforceable arbitration clauses, definition of strategies for the arbitration proceeding, choice of arbitrators and technical witnesses, according to the nature of the conflict, evidence production according to the best local and international practices, ample knowledge of the rules of the main arbitration institutions and, also, the enforcement of national and international arbitration awards, as well as annulment proceedings against arbitration awards.
