Arbitration & Mediation

Alternative dispute resolution solutions for faster, confidential, and cost-effective settlements

In a world where time, confidentiality, and business relationships are increasingly valuable, traditional courtroom litigation is not always the most efficient way to resolve disputes. Arbitration and mediation collectively known as alternative dispute resolution (ADR) offer parties a faster, more flexible, and often more cost-effective path to settlement, without compromising on fairness or enforceability.

At LD Counsels, we understand that every dispute is unique. Sometimes, the best outcome comes not from a public court battle but from a private, negotiated, and binding resolution. Our arbitration and mediation practice, headquartered in Delhi NCR and operating Pan-India, serves clients across industries from construction and infrastructure to technology, finance, manufacturing, and entertainment. Our Arbitration & Mediation team offers efficient, cost-effective, and discreet ways to resolve disputes without compromising on fairness or outcomes.

Whether you are involved in a high-value international arbitration, a domestic commercial dispute, or a sensitive contractual disagreement, we have the expertise to guide you through every stage, ensuring your interests are fully protected. We ensure the process is structured, fair, and strategically managed from start to finish.
