SOUAIBY RASSI has substantial experience before Lebanese courts and handles nearly every type of civil litigation. Many of the firm's cases have caused the courts to decide important legal issues in published opinions.

We understand that avoiding litigation is generally more important than committing our clients' resources and time to lengthy court proceedings. Where litigation is unavoidable or otherwise required, we provide intelligent and efficient litigation strategies.

In many cases, our clients have succeeded without the need for a trial, by obtaining preliminary injunctions or summary judgments, or by negotiating a favorable settlement. Our strategies are executed with the utmost diligence and attention to detail, never forgetting our objective to obtain the best cost-effective result for our client.

In situations where litigation can or should be avoided, we promote and utilise alternative dispute resolution mechanisms such as mediation, arbitration and expert determination. We have extensive experience in dealing with all forms of alternative dispute resolution and can recommend the right resolution mechanism for each dispute.

We understand the arbitration process, its practicalities, procedures, forums and methods of enforcement and represent our clients before arbitrators.
