Elspeth Rowan
Partner
International Arbitration
Called 1999
Sits as an arbitrator in LCIA and SIAC references and appears as counsel in energy and construction disputes across three continents. Has run twelve hearings under the 1996 Act and set aside two awards on jurisdiction. Reads the arbitration agreement before anything else, and says early when it will not bear the weight being put on it.

Background
Elspeth acts as counsel and sits as an arbitrator in LCIA and SIAC references, chiefly in shareholder, joint venture and long-term supply disputes across Europe and South-East Asia.
She has appeared in a number of the leading section 68 and section 69 challenges of recent years, on both sides of the argument, and is often instructed on enforcement where an award has to be recognised in three or four jurisdictions at once.
Clients tend to come back to her for the same reason: she will tell them at the outset whether an award against a particular respondent is likely to be worth anything.
