1. What is the role of arbitration in resolving international disputes, and how does it differ from litigation?

Arbitration is a private dispute resolution method that allows parties to resolve conflicts outside traditional court proceedings. It is widely used in international disputes as it offers a faster, more confidential, and cost-effective alternative to litigation. Unlike court litigation, arbitration ensures neutrality, making it ideal for cross-border transactions where parties come from different legal jurisdictions. In India, arbitration is governed by the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, of 1996, ensuring an efficient process for both domestic and international disputes. Our firm provides end-to-end arbitration support, from drafting arbitration clauses to enforcement of arbitral awards.
