Resolve disputes. Protect relationships.
We drive out-of-court negotiations, mediations and arbitrations with speed, discretion and clear cost control—securing practical, enforceable outcomes.
At OLC, we strongly encourage out-of-court settlements. We’ve been at the centre of negotiations, mediations and arbitrations with tremendous success—helping clients realise acceptable justice in a win-win atmosphere, at lower cost and in shorter timelines. We work discreetly, maintain strict confidentiality, and are transparent about costs.
We structure, prepare and advise on arbitration clauses for commercial contracts, including choice of law, choice of forum and the effect/application of arbitration provisions across transactions and projects. We act in both international and domestic proceedings, with experience across commercial sectors—guiding clients through the full process up to recognition and enforcement of awards.
Our Arbitration team is headed by Mr. Allan Ogoi, MCIArb, a member of the Chartered Institute of Arbitrators (UK) and an experienced advocate in complex ADR mandates.
