Arbitration
Davis Graham & Stubbs LLP has a deep bench of attorneys skilled in all phases of alternative dispute resolution. We regularly counsel clients on drafting and interpreting arbitration and dispute resolution clauses, the “art” of selecting arbitrators, discovery, conducting the arbitration hearing, and confirming or challenging the arbitration award. We use our collective knowledge and experience to represent clients engaged in a wide range of industries and business transactions, including natural resources, mergers and acquisitions, securities, real estate, and construction.
Davis Graham lawyers are experienced with self-administered arbitrations and those administered by tribunals, such as the American Arbitration Association, the International Centre for Dispute Resolution, the Judicial Arbiter Group (JAG), and JAMS.
Arbitration has become an increasingly important tool for resolving complex business disputes efficiently and privately. At Davis Graham, our attorneys represent clients in arbitration proceedings across a wide range of industries, offering the same level of preparation, advocacy, and strategic insight that defines our courtroom practice. Our team understands that while arbitration differs procedurally from litigation, the stakes are often just as high—and success depends on a thoughtful, well-executed strategy.
We guide clients through every stage of the arbitration process, from drafting and enforcing arbitration provisions to representing parties in hearings and post-award proceedings. Our attorneys are experienced in navigating different arbitration frameworks With a strong foundation in commercial litigation, we bring a practical, results-oriented perspective to each matter, ensuring that our approach is aligned with our clients’ business objectives.
Davis Graham attorneys regularly handle disputes involving complex contractual relationships, construction and infrastructure projects, energy and natural resources, and high-value commercial transactions. Arbitration is often preferred in these contexts for its flexibility and confidentiality, and our team is skilled at leveraging these advantages to protect our clients’ interests. In prior matters, our attorneys have represented clients in arbitration proceedings involving significant technical evidence, multiple expert witnesses, and substantial financial exposure.
Our approach to arbitration is proactive and strategic. We work closely with clients to assess whether arbitration is the most effective dispute resolution mechanism and to structure agreements that minimize risk and uncertainty. When disputes arise, we focus on efficient case management, persuasive presentation of evidence, and clear, compelling advocacy before arbitrators. We also advise clients on enforcing arbitration awards and navigating related litigation when necessary.
At Davis Graham, our arbitration practice is grounded in the same principles that guide all of our work: collaboration, responsiveness, and a commitment to achieving meaningful results. Whether you are drafting an arbitration agreement, managing risk in a complex transaction, or resolving a high-stakes dispute, our team provides the insight and advocacy needed to move forward with confidence.
