International Arbitration

We are one of the few law firms in Uzbekistan that directly represents clients in international arbitration proceedings before leading arbitral institutions, rather than limiting our role to providing expertise on Uzbek law. This distinctive approach sets us apart in the region.

The team at PraeLegal Uzbekistan has extensive experience in successfully representing clients in arbitrations administered under the rules of leading institutions, including the ICC (International Chamber of Commerce), LCIA (London Court of International Arbitration), TIAC (Tashkent International Arbitration Centre), VIAC (Vienna International Arbitral Centre), RAC (Russian Arbitration Center), and SIETAC (Shanghai International Economic and Trade Arbitration Commission). Several of our lawyers have served as arbitrators, giving us unique insight into the structure of arbitration proceedings, the behavior of parties, and the factors that influence arbitral decisions. This experience equips us to develop tailored strategies that protect our clients' interests in complex and high-stakes disputes.

Our involvement in cases heard before institutions like the Tashkent International Arbitration Centre (TIAC) and the Russian Arbitration Center (RAC) enables us to effectively represent clients, particularly in disputes involving parties from Uzbekistan and neighboring countries.

We take pride in offering innovative strategies and approaches to the analysis and presentation of evidence, a crucial aspect of complex arbitration cases. By crafting persuasive arguments and addressing key evidentiary issues, we ensure that our clients' positions are presented in the strongest possible light. Our tailored solutions take into account the unique circumstances of each case, combining a deep understanding of the arbitral process with the specific context of the dispute.

We place particular emphasis on navigating the interplay between international and local laws, a vital factor in disputes involving Uzbekistan. From drafting arbitration clauses to addressing issues of enforcement or challenging arbitral awards, we guide our clients through every stage of the process. We also focus on pre-arbitration attachment measures and related court procedures to safeguard their interests.

The uniqueness of our practice lies in combining international expertise with an in-depth understanding of Uzbek legislation, making us a reliable partner for companies operating in Uzbekistan or engaging with local counterparts.
