Arbitration Financing

Get the resources, expert advice and global perspective you need to bridge the gap between having an arbitration claim that could yield recoveries and having a risk-mitigated means of pursuing it.

With capital from Omni Bridgeway, you can pursue complex and complicated arbitration matters before any arbitral tribunal without being financially burdened throughout the lengthy arbitration process.

Gain additional advantage from our arbitration financing team’s ability to analyze factors impacting claims and advise on navigating the nuances of the various arbitral institutions.

In a field with arbitration disputes seated around the globe, access to a worldwide team of experts affords considerable leverage to claimants and counsel. Ours spans ten countries and is comprised of lawyers experienced in representing clients in arbitration hearings around the world before joining Omni Bridgeway. We offer 30+ years of country specific experience, cultural and political acumen, and prior case knowledge archived in our proprietary database and ready for application.
