International arbitration
Misechko & Partners represents Ukrainian and international companies in international commercial arbitration and in the recognition and enforcement of arbitral awards in Ukraine and abroad.
Arbitration clauses have become standard in cross-border contracts. Under the 1958 New York Convention, arbitral awards can be enforced in more than 170 states, so for business it matters not only to win the dispute but to recover the money.
We handle disputes under the rules of leading arbitral institutions, including the ICC International Court of Arbitration, LCIA, SCC, SIAC, CIETAC and the Swiss Arbitration Centre, as well as the ICAC and the Maritime Arbitration Commission at the Ukrainian Chamber of Commerce and Industry.
The firm’s dispute resolution practice is recognised by Benchmark Litigation.
