Dispute Resolution

Our law office was originally established as a litigation firm before branching out into other practice areas. Currently, the commercial litigation group remains the backbone of the firm and closely interacts with other practice groups to meet the diverse needs of its commercial and banking clientele. The firm represents clients in disputes brought before Jordanian courts as well as local and international arbitration forums. The firm's objective in each case is to provide an efficient and commercially viable solution for the dispute at hand whether through litigation, arbitration or other means of dispute resolution. The firm has the resources to handle complex litigation cases and has experience in a wide variety of claims and disputes including banking claims, general contractual and commercial disputes insolvency, construction disputes and agency termination disputes.

Several members of the firm are highly experienced in agency termination disputes and have successfully defended many foreign principals in agents' claims for compensation upon termination of agency or distributorship agreements. Many precedents set by the Jordanian Court of Cassation in this area were established through arguments presented by members of this firm.

In addition to its litigation practice, the firm has over the years developed expertise in the area of Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR). It has been heavily involved in many local and international arbitration proceedings. The firm has extensive experience as counsel at the ICC International Court of Arbitration, the International Centre for the Settlement of Investment Disputes (ICSID) and the American Arbitration Association (AAA).
