At ARPA Abogados Consultores, we have extensive experience in alternative dispute resolution (ADR) procedures outside the ordinary courts, such as national and international arbitration, mediation, and participation in private conciliation proceedings. We act as both attorneys and arbitrators, mediators, and conciliators.
We handle national and international arbitration proceedings, whether ad hoc or before the leading national and international arbitration courts (CIIAM, CIMA, the arbitration courts of various Spanish Chambers of Commerce, ICC, etc.), acting as counsel with a special focus on the following sectors:
Energy and construction.
Industrial and agri-food sectors.
Retail sector, distribution, agency, and supply contracts, both national and international.
Transportation contracts.
Family businesses.
Disputes regarding M&A, sales contracts with an international element, and investment and divestment transactions.
Breaches of civil and commercial contracts.
We have also served as arbitrators appointed by the Arbitration Court of the Chamber of Commerce of Navarre and the Pamplona Bar Association, as well as mediators appointed by the Mediation Court of Navarre.
We participate in mediation and conciliation proceedings prior to litigation with the aim of avoiding court proceedings, whether in private inter-party proceedings or those managed by a mediation court, such as the Mediation Court of Navarra or the Madrid Bar Association, among others. We act as mediators or advise of one of the parties to successfully navigate such proceedings, with a particular focus on:
Disputes between partners and/or with the governing bodies of commercial companies.
Disputes among members of family businesses.
Inheritance proceedings.
Disputes in homeowners’ associations.
Division of assets.
Commercial disputes (non-payment, breach of contract, corporate mergers or spin-offs, etc.).
Liability for professional negligence.
Claims regarding tort liability.
Banking and mortgage law.
Consumer law and class action litigation.
Separation, divorce, and child custody proceedings.
