Arbitration

National & International Arbitration

In today’s interconnected business environment, disputes can arise at both domestic and international levels. Whether your matter is local or cross-border, our arbitration team offers comprehensive guidance on resolving disputes efficiently and effectively—through both national and international arbitration.
Arbitration offers a strategic alternative to court proceedings, allowing parties greater control over the process, access to subject-matter experts, confidentiality, and more streamlined enforcement of awards. Whether you’re dealing with a national dispute or a complex international matter, our dual qualified and bilingual team is equipped to help you navigate every stage, from drafting arbitration clauses to managing the proceedings.

Our national arbitration practice is deeply rooted in the local legal landscape. We represent clients in domestic arbitrations across a wide range of sectors and industries, leveraging our understanding of local regulations, institutions, and business practices. Our arbitration team is bilingual and dual qualified in a number of Canadian jurisdictions and internationally. The team provides end-to-end support for clients navigating arbitration processes—whether the matter is governed by Canadian or foreign laws.
