For international arbitration, they are simply impressive.

Debevoise ... operates at a superior level.

Partners have outstanding advocacy skills due to their unparalleled experience, but senior associates are also arbitration superstars and can handle very sophisticated matters seamlessly.

They are leaders in the arbitration world and active across many jurisdictions and types of cases and that translates to commercial awareness.

They’re one of the strongest outfits in the field.

Debevoise has the best international arbitration team in the world.

It is rare if not unheard of to have a team with no weak link but I can attest to the [Debevoise] team to having earned this reputation.

Debevoise’s international arbitration team is top notch. Strategic thinking and delivery of superb work product are their top qualities. When you go for Debevoise, you do not hire an arbitration star, you hire a star team.
