ICC arbitration / Dispute on Port Terminal Construction / Middle-East

We acted for the employer in ICC arbitration proceedings in Paris concerning a major project to refurbish aport terminal in Iraq. The subcontractor advanced more than 60 claims concerning scope changes, delay and quantum, exposing our client to substantial financial risk.

The tribunal rejected 92 per cent of the amounts claimed by the opposing party, upholding our client’s position on almost every issue.

We achieved this result within the agreed budget by using AI-assisted document review in compliance with confidentiality requirements, deploying the team efficiently and tailoring our strategy to the tribunal’s profile.
