International and National Arbitration

International and National Arbitration is a widely preferred and effective alternative dispute resolution method for resolving commercial disputes. The parties come together to present their evidence before an independent arbitrator or a panel of arbitrators, resolving their disputes outside of court. This method offers a reliable solution in commercial relationships due to its fast decision-making process and binding outcomes. Furthermore, international arbitration plays an effective role in resolving cross-border disputes between countries, while national arbitration is typically used for resolving domestic commercial disputes and is conducted in accordance with local laws. These methods contribute to the creation of an efficient trade environment by avoiding complex legal processes and fostering cooperation and reconciliation between the parties.
