DGS lawyers offer alternative methods of dispute resolution when conventional litigation is not available or is not the most effective way to resolve a problem.  We counsel clients on interpretation of arbitration and dispute resolution clauses, as well as choice of law and forum selection provisions.  We litigate disputes over the scope of arbitration clauses and arbitrator jurisdiction, as well as petitions to vacate and to confirm arbitration awards.  DGS lawyers have acted as arbitrators in dispute resolution proceedings in the United States under the rules of the American Arbitration Association, the National Association of Securities Dealers and other leading institutions.   The many subjects in which we have handled arbitrations include banking, construction and real estate litigation, employment matters, insurance and reinsurance, oil and gas disputes, royalty disputes, and securities claims.
