Expertise

Arbitration

We advise and represent clients in arbitration and ADR, including expert opinions on Liechtenstein law and support in recognition and enforcement as well as setting-aside proceedings.


How we typically support


We act as counsel in Liechtenstein-related matters and as an interface to coordinate cross-border counsel teams, experts, and parallel court tracks.


Scope of services


  • Advising and representing parties in institutional and ad hoc arbitration

  • Drafting, reviewing, and negotiating arbitration clauses (seat, rules, appointment mechanisms)

  • Assessing cases early (merits, quantum, evidence, jurisdiction, enforceability)

  • Developing procedural strategy and managing proceedings (pleadings, document production, hearings)

  • Handling tribunal constitution, appointments, and challenge strategy

  • Preparing witness and expert evidence strategy and hearing preparation

  • Planning interim measures and urgent relief, including asset-preservation steps

  • Supporting settlement strategy, without-prejudice negotiations, and mediation

  • Managing set-aside / annulment strategy and defensive representation

  • Supporting recognition and enforcement of arbitral awards

  • Coordinating parallel court proceedings and regulatory or enforcement tracks


Approach


We combine rigorous legal analysis with a pragmatic case strategy. We focus early on the decisive issues - contractual risk allocation, evidence, jurisdiction, and a realistic enforcement path - while keeping timelines and cost exposure under control. Where proceedings are unavoidable, we represent clients with focused written submissions and hearing advocacy aligned with the evidentiary record and the enforcement endgame.


Deliverables


  • A structured merits/quantum/evidence assessment

  • A procedural roadmap with decision points and budget drivers

  • An enforcement and security plan aligned with asset location and timing


Liechtenstein-law opinions


We prepare reasoned opinions on Liechtenstein law for use in arbitral submissions, hearings, and related court proceedings. Opinions are structured around clear conclusions, primary sources, and the specific procedural context in which they will be deployed.


Enforcement and annulment of awards


The post-award phase often determines the commercial outcome. We support recognition and enforcement strategy, including jurisdiction and asset mapping, and represent clients in setting-aside/annulment proceedings with a focus on procedural risk and enforceability.


Selected experience (anonymised)


  • Preparing an expert opinion on Liechtenstein law for use in foreign investor-state arbitration proceedings


If you are considering arbitration, require a second opinion on strategy, or need a Liechtenstein-law opinion, we can typically accommodate short timelines.
