Mediation and Arbitration

Arbitration in Saudi Arabia

Our Firm recognizes how time consuming and inefficient seeking litigation through courts can be, which may result in grave losses in the field of business where the element of time is of the essence. Accordingly, our dispute resolution team specializes in Arbitration and Alternative Dispute Resolutions (ADR) such as mediation and settlement in order to speed up the legal process of resolving disputes and provide non-biased and impartial solutions for our clients who wish to have their disputes resolved as swiftly as possible with the utmost neutrality, and we guarantee you that the costs involved in settling your disputes remain affordable and within your budget limits.

How we do it

We provide legal advice for international corporations that have contractual agreements with Saudi Corporations and Establishments as well as domestic investors residing in Saudi Arabia. The Arbitration award which is obtained through Arbitration Centers can be implemented through the Enforcement Court so long as it complies with the preconditions set forth by the Enforcement Law. One of our high-profile arbitration cases that was adopted by our team was that of a dispute between a foreign company and a well-known Saudi Conglomerate. We represented the foreign company and successfully obtained an arbitration award in our client’s favor.

Our way of doing it

Legislators defined mediation as a method of interference of a neutral third party between two parties, which tries to bring them closer together, in preparation for a friendly settlement, and the third party may have intervened on its own or at the request of one of the parties.

Mediation

Types of Mediation

Judicial Mediation: Which is mediation amongst both parties of a conflict, applying the rules and regulations of the law during conflict resolution, meaning the key factor of judicial mediation is the regulations of the law and not the agreement of both parties.

Conciliatory Mediation: which aims to reconcile between the perspectives of both parties to the conflict, by which the main reason behind the conflict is determined, where the mediator explains the position of each party to the other during the process. This helps reach a satisfactory agreement for both parties.

Our Role in Mediation

Our firm offers two separate things when resolving conflicts through mediation:

Firstly: to represent one of the parties to a conflict which is similar to representing them in front of a court of law aiming to satisfy our client before commencing judicial proceedings.

Secondly: to play the role of the mediator between the parties if selected such as arranging sessions and customary meetings between both parties to a conflict, offering relevant suggestions that satisfies both parties, without pressure or coercion, to arrive at the appropriate solutions that would dismantle the conflict. The agreement clauses are then drafted on binding electronic platforms on both parties, and in case either party fails to execute their obligations, the other party has the right to seek a court of law to execute said obligation.

Our dispute resolution team offers excellent strategies of resolution for our clients by assessing every aspect of the dispute brought forth and deciding which course of action would ensure an expedited result with regards to settlements. That being said, our team’s vast experience and extensive knowledge in mediation covers a variety of issues arising from the following complex areas:

“The decisions executed through the mediation process are now enforceable through the enforcement court in Saudi Arabia which will help expedite the legal process and will be cost-effective.”
