About Arijit S.

I am an India-qualified Advocate and Associate with the International Disputes, Litigation and Arbitration team at Skywards Law, where I help clients navigate high-stakes commercial and investment disputes across jurisdictions. My experience spans complex arbitrations under ICSID, ICC, SIAC, UNCITRAL, and ad hoc rules, covering industries from construction and oil & gas to technology, mining, environment and the fast-evolving electric vehicles sector. I also work closely with clients at the pre-dispute stage shaping strategy, structuring investments, and positioning them to avoid or mitigate costly proceedings.My path into international arbitration has been both academic and professional. I graduated with distinction in International Law, trained at the Arbitration Academy in Paris (where I was awarded the Laureate of the Academy), and have since built a practice that combines advocacy, strategic advisory, and thought leadership. I contribute to platforms like Digital Coffee Break in Arbitration, write on topical issues, and actively engage with the Vis Moot Alumni Association to connect and mentor the next generation of arbitration professionals.At heart, I thrive where law, strategy, and global industries intersect, helping clients resolve disputes and anticipate the challenges of tomorrow.
