Int Arb

The International Arbitration Centre is a dedicated ADR centre, far and away the most up-to-date facility in London, uniquely equipped, and the perfect venue for any kind of dispute, from short, one-day interlocutory hearings through to month-long complex proceedings.

Our aim is to provide your organisation with a seamless extension to your own offices so that your proceedings can be conducted as efficiently as possible, with all conceivable business facilities on site, including private board rooms, breakout meeting spaces and lounges; private rest-rooms; secure office networking tools and personal access to all essential office equipment.

We pride ourselves on providing the most cost-effective arbitration facilities in London. We minimise fuss, eliminate delays and keep a lid on costs. That’s what ensures our regular clients keep coming back to The IAC, and in their words “the IAC is unlike anything else available globally” means we provide a peerless, world-beating service.

We are confident that the IAC is a suitable venue for clients to resolve their commercial disputes.
