Arbitration & Dispute Resolution
An arbitration is usually decided by choices made two years earlier, in the drafting of the clause and in what was said in the notice invoking it.
We act in domestic and institutional arbitrations and in the court proceedings that surround them. Our work spans the full arc: invoking or resisting the clause, securing interim protection before the tribunal is constituted, conducting the reference, and then enforcing or resisting the award.
What this covers
Protective orders from the court before or during the arbitration, where waiting for the tribunal would defeat the relief.
Applications to the High Court or Supreme Court where the other side will not co-operate in constituting the tribunal, including challenges to eligibility and ineligibility under the Seventh Schedule.
Statement of claim and defence, documentary and witness evidence, interim applications before the tribunal, and final hearings.
Setting-aside petitions and defence of awards, on the narrow grounds the statute allows rather than the merits review parties often expect.
Execution of domestic awards and enforcement of foreign awards, including resistance to enforcement.
Mediation and pre-institution mediation before the High Court of Delhi, including for parties who want the dispute resolved without a public record.
