"Disputes require strength, strategy and clarity. We resolve conflicts with intelligence, integrity and results that protect your interests and keep your business moving forward."
Arbitration has become one of the most trusted methods of dispute resolution in Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, the United Kingdom, Singapore and Bangladesh. Businesses prefer arbitration because it offers privacy, enforceable decisions and a faster path to resolution compared to traditional court litigation. Dewey and LeBoeuf LLP represents clients in institutional and ad hoc arbitration, including DIAC, ADCCAC, LCIA, ICC, SIAC, UNCITRAL and local arbitration frameworks. Our arbitration lawyers understand industry specific disputes such as construction delays, commercial contracts, joint venture disagreements, trade conflicts and investment treaty claims.
We guide clients through drafting arbitration clauses, preparing submissions, selecting arbitrators, presenting evidence, handling expert testimony and enforcing awards internationally. With global reach and regional understanding, our team is equipped to manage multi jurisdictional arbitration matters where laws of different regions apply simultaneously. In markets like Dubai and Singapore, where arbitration is preferred for cross border transactions, our experience provides significant advantage. We protect commercial relationships while maintaining assertive representation to secure favorable awards.
Clients choose Dewey and LeBoeuf because we combine advocacy excellence with negotiation capabilities. We help clients consider settlement options when beneficial and fight decisively when required. Whether defending against claims or pursuing damages, we deliver strategic, disciplined and effective arbitration services. When enforcement becomes necessary, our firm assists in converting awards into executable judgments across various jurisdictions. Arbitration requires preparation, foresight and technical strength, and our firm provides all three. With our support, clients gain confidence, clarity and control over the dispute process.
Mediation offers an opportunity to resolve disputes without confrontation, lengthy proceedings or financial disruption. In regions like Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, the United Kingdom, Singapore and Bangladesh, mediation is increasingly encouraged due to its ability to preserve business relationships and reduce legal exposure. Dewey and LeBoeuf LLP supports clients in mediation processes involving commercial partners, investors, suppliers, real estate developers, contractors, shareholders and employers. Our mediation lawyers help clients prepare strategically, define objectives, evaluate risks and engage in discussions that lead to mutually acceptable outcomes.
Mediation is confidential and flexible. It allows parties to control the terms of the resolution rather than relying on a court or tribunal decision. Our role is to strengthen the client’s position, structure negotiation points and ensure agreements are enforceable and clearly documented. With experience across industries including technology, manufacturing, real estate, hospitality and finance, our team understands how to balance commercial priorities with dispute sensitivities.
We also help clients determine when mediation is beneficial and when alternative methods should be considered. Not all disputes require aggressive litigation. Many can be resolved through guided dialogue that restores trust, protects brand reputation and reduces operational stress. Dewey and LeBoeuf brings professionalism, discretion and negotiation intelligence to every mediation setting.
Our global and regional presence allows us to mediate disputes involving parties from different legal and cultural backgrounds. This makes us a preferred choice for international businesses operating in the UAE, the UK, Singapore and Bangladesh. Mediation is a powerful tool when guided by experts who understand human dynamics and commercial realities. We help clients achieve resolution with dignity, respect and strategic advantage.
Commercial litigation remains necessary when disputes cannot be resolved through negotiation or arbitration. Dewey and LeBoeuf LLP represents clients before courts in Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, the United Kingdom, Singapore and Bangladesh. Our litigation team handles complex commercial cases involving breach of contract, financial disputes, fraud, shareholder conflicts, partnership disagreements, import and export matters, employment disputes, real estate claims and intellectual property violations.
Litigation demands meticulous preparation, persuasive advocacy and strong legal grounding. Our lawyers analyze evidence, draft pleadings, examine witnesses and present compelling arguments that support our clients’ objectives. We also provide realistic expectations, cost awareness and clear timelines, helping clients make informed decisions throughout the process. With extensive courtroom experience and a deep understanding of procedural requirements in each jurisdiction, our team is positioned to secure strategic outcomes.
Businesses rely on us when stakes are high, reputations are at risk and legal precision is essential. In rapidly growing commercial environments like Dubai and Singapore, litigation can impact market standing and investor confidence. Dewey and LeBoeuf ensures that clients are represented with strength, professionalism and tactical insight.
We also advise on litigation avoidance strategies and risk reduction frameworks. Our goal is to win, but also to protect the long term commercial health of our clients. When required, we pursue urgent injunctions, asset freezes and enforcement measures to secure client interests. With our firm, clients gain disciplined legal representation backed by global capability and regional expertise.
Cross border disputes are increasingly common as businesses expand across Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, the United Kingdom, Singapore and Bangladesh. These disputes often involve conflicting legal systems, multinational parties, international contracts, regulatory differences and jurisdictional challenges. Dewey and LeBoeuf LLP specializes in managing complex cross border dispute resolution with coordinated strategy and international legal understanding.
Our lawyers assist in disputes involving international trade, cross border investment, technology transactions, shipping and maritime issues, multinational employment matters, financial agreements, licensing and franchising. We navigate regulatory frameworks, treaty considerations, enforcement rules and international commercial standards. Clients value our ability to provide seamless representation across multiple countries through a single legal partner.
Cross border disputes require clarity, planning and coordination.
