How we can help with international arbitration (difc, diac, siac)

We advise Indian businesses and individuals on disputes connected with the Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC), the Dubai International Arbitration Centre (DIAC) and the Singapore International Arbitration Centre (SIAC), and on the Indian court proceedings that often run alongside them.

FAQs
International Arbitration (DIFC, DIAC, SIAC): common questions
Our contract names DIAC or SIAC. Can we still get help in India?
Yes. We advise on strategy, prepare the case and coordinate the proceedings. Where local counsel at the seat is required, we work alongside them.
Can a foreign arbitral award be enforced in India?
Foreign awards can be enforced in India under Part II of the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996, subject to the grounds on which enforcement may be refused. We assess the award and the assets before filing.
Can Indian courts grant interim relief in a foreign-seated arbitration?
In suitable cases Indian courts can grant interim measures in support of an arbitration seated outside India, unless the parties have agreed otherwise. Timing and forum matter, so seek advice early.
How long does an international arbitration take?
It depends on the rules, the tribunal, the complexity of the dispute and the conduct of the parties. Expedited procedures are available under some institutional rules for smaller or urgent claims.
