Arbitrators & Mediators

Arbitra members are internationally recognised for their expertise and act independently in their capacities as arbitrators. They bring extensive experience in handling substantial disputes under a broad range of key arbitral institutional rules. These include appointments by institutions such as ICC, LCIA, SIAC, HKIAC, ICSID, ICDR, DIAC, UNCITRAL, BVI IAC, SCC, VIAC, and CAM-CBBC, among others. Additionally, our members serve on specialist tribunals like the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) and the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO), as well as in ad hoc tribunals around the world.

Our arbitrators actively contribute to the international arbitration community by sharing their expertise at industry events and conferences. Many hold leadership positions and academic roles at prestigious institutions, reflecting their commitment to advancing the field of arbitration.

With specialisation across various corporate and commercial sectors, our members possess unparalleled expertise, often stemming from distinguished careers as senior partners in law firms, general counsel in major corporations, and senior officials in government bodies. This breadth of experience enables them to understand the practical needs of clients, which informs their pragmatic and commercially focused approach to arbitration.

Arbitra members are also skilled in managing emergency arbitrations and are available for appointments at short notice, ensuring they meet the urgent demands of complex disputes.

Our mediator members are strategically located across the globe, ensuring accessibility and the ability to assist in resolving disputes wherever they arise. Renowned for their facilitative and transformative mediation styles, they have earned global recognition in leading directories such as Legal 500, Who’s Who Legal, Chambers & Partners, Doyle’s Guide, and Best Lawyers for their outstanding proficiency in dispute resolution.

Our mediators have conducted mediations under a wide range of institutional rules, including CEDR, ICSID, AAA-ICDR, ICC, and LCIA. They bring extensive experience and adaptability to each case, tailoring their approach to suit the specific needs of the parties involved.

We are deeply committed to advancing investor-state mediation, collaborating with ICSID and CEDR to support its development as a vital mechanism for resolving complex cross-border disputes. Beyond casework, our members actively contribute to the growth of the mediation field by assisting in the training and mentoring of emerging mediators. This dedication helps cultivate a robust and diverse pool of next-generation mediators, ensuring the future strength of the profession.

Recognising that certain disputes can become costly and impractical, with legal expenses often exceeding the initial claim's value, we offer a Fixed Fee Mediation Package. This initiative provides prompt, cost-effective support, enabling parties to resolve disputes efficiently and pragmatically under the guidance of a skilled mediator.
