Arbitra International

What Arbitra International does

Arbitra International is a membership-based tribunal selection and arbitrator support platform founded in 2021 and headquartered in London, with additional offices in Washington DC (adjacent to the World Bank) and Abu Dhabi (at the ADGM Dispute Resolution Hearing Centre). The firm operates as a curated roster of internationally recognized arbitrators and mediators, serving three primary client segments: law firms, in-house general counsel teams, and institutions requiring dispute resolution professionals. Its core offering consists of two product modules — Tribunal Selection Services (deep due diligence matching of disputes to neutrals, considering tribunal dynamics, individual characteristics, and availability) and Arbitrator Support Services (concierge practice management for independent neutrals transitioning from law firms or chambers) — augmented by a Fixed Fee Mediation Package introduced in 2024 to address smaller-value commercial disputes.
