Flip Petillion appointed as Sole Arbitrator in Dispute within the Legal Profession

Flip Petillion has been appointed as sole arbitrator in a dispute arising from a partnership within the legal profession.

Being entrusted with the resolution of a dispute between fellow lawyers is a particular mark of confidence. The appointment underlines the trust placed in Flip, not only by clients but also by peers within the legal community, to independently resolve disputes with fairness, discretion, and legal rigour. Few endorsements speak louder than being chosen by those who know the profession from within.

Given the sensitive nature of the matter, no further details will be disclosed.

Flip is regularly appointed as arbitrator, both in ad hoc proceedings and in arbitrations administered by leading arbitral institutions, including CEPANI, ICC, SIAC, PMAC, WIPO, CAC, Forum, C-SAR, NOMINET, and IFTA, among others.

Although ADR in general, and arbitration in particular, have become core focuses of Flip's practice, he remains first and foremost a dispute resolution lawyer. His extensive experience as counsel in complex litigation and arbitration proceedings informs his work as arbitrator: he understands the dynamics of a dispute from every angle — as advocate, adviser, and decision-maker. It is precisely this combination that parties value when they entrust him with the resolution of their conflicts.
