International arbitration has become the leading method for resolving global commercial disputes — especially for companies operating across the Middle East, Asia, Europe, and Africa.
Corporations choose arbitration because it provides:
- Faster dispute resolution
- Confidentiality and reputation protection
- Professional arbitrators with industry knowledge
- Globally enforceable awards
However — arbitration is not automatic success.
It requires expert legal advocacy throughout every stage.
Winning in arbitration requires mastering the procedures —
not just having a valid claim.
Key Legal Procedures in International Arbitration Advocacy
1️-Preliminary Case Evaluation & Arbitration Clause Review
Analysis of:
- Contract terms
- Scope of obligations
- Breach evidence
- Value of damages
- Arbitration clause details
One procedural mistake may jeopardize the entire claim.
2️-Arbitration Forum & Applicable Law Selection
Major institutions:
- ICC — Paris
- DIAC — Dubai
- SCCA — Saudi Arabia
- LCIA — London
- SIAC — Singapore
- HKIAC — Hong Kong
- CRCICA — Cairo
This decision impacts:
✔ Speed
✔ Costs
✔ Enforceability
Choosing the right forum is strategic.
3️-Filing the Request for Arbitration
Includes:
- Dispute summary
- Monetary claims
- Arbitrator selection proposal
- Initial document submission
Timing is crucial — assets abroad can disappear quickly.
4️-Evidence Gathering & Legal Translation
Key documentation:
- Commercial contracts
- Invoices and delivery records
- Expert financial and technical reports
- Email correspondence proving breach
Well-organized evidence = powerful advocacy.
5️-Legal Submissions & Written Advocacy
Lawyers must:
- Present facts clearly
- Support claims with legal authority
- Calculate losses commercially and accurately
Writing often shapes the outcome before hearings begin.
6️-Hearing Advocacy & Oral Arguments
Effective representation involves:
- Strong oral pleadings
- Witness and expert examination
- Responding strategically to tribunal questions
A single hearing session may shift the tribunal’s decision.
7️-Post-Hearing Procedures
- Additional submissions if required
- Monitoring tribunal deliberation
- Ensuring due process compliance
8️-Award Enforcement
Arbitration success = payment collected
Execution tools:
- Asset seizure
- Freezing bank accounts
- International recognition under the New York Convention
This final stage delivers the real business value.
