Commercial Arbitration (Domestic and International)

Arbitration is considered the optimal method for resolving major commercial disputes that require speed, confidentiality, and professionalism, without undergoing traditional court procedures. It is an effective tool for handling construction contracts, foreign partnerships, investment projects, and cross-border agreements. However, the success of arbitration depends not only on choosing this method but also on the precise legal structuring from the negotiation of the arbitration clause to the enforcement of the arbitral award.

At B&Co, we have a distinguished track record in representing our clients before both domestic and international arbitral tribunals. We operate according to the highest professional standards to ensure efficient dispute management, with expertise in the rules of renowned arbitration institutions such as LCIA, ICC, DIAC, the Oman Commercial Arbitration Centre, among others.
