Our Practices

Arbitration / Conciliatory / Mediation Services

In today’s fast-evolving legal and business environment, clients increasingly seek faster, more cost-effective, and confidential alternatives to traditional litigation. At Roy Associates, we offer comprehensive Arbitration, Conciliation, and Mediation Services, assisting clients to resolve disputes efficiently while maintaining business relationships and protecting reputational interests.

Based in Kolkata, our firm is known for its structured approach to Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR), combining legal insight with practical negotiation strategies. Whether the matter is commercial, contractual, financial, or personal in nature, our ADR team ensures outcomes that are enforceable, fair, and timely.

Arbitration Services

Arbitration is a legally binding process where parties agree to resolve their disputes privately through one or more appointed arbitrators. It is governed by the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996, and is widely used in commercial and cross-border disputes.

At Roy Associates, we represent clients in:

  • Institutional and Ad-hoc Arbitration Proceedings
  • Domestic and International Arbitrations
  • Pre-arbitration Advisory and Strategy
  • Drafting Arbitration Agreements / Clauses
  • Appointment of Arbitrators under Section 11
  • Interim Relief Applications under Section 9
  • Challenges and Enforcement of Arbitral Awards (Sections 34 & 36)

Our arbitration practice covers a wide range of sectors including:

  • Infrastructure and Construction Disputes
  • Shareholder and Joint Venture Disputes
  • Supply and Distribution Agreements
  • Real Estate Transactions
  • Service Agreements and Commercial Contracts

We assist clients through the entire lifecycle of arbitration — from initiating or responding to a notice of arbitration, conducting hearings, to enforcing or challenging the final award. We also collaborate with experts and technical consultants where necessary to support our legal arguments.

Conciliation Services

Conciliation is a voluntary, non-binding procedure in which a neutral third party assists the disputing parties to reach a mutually agreeable solution. It is less formal than arbitration and is particularly effective when both parties are open to negotiation.

At Roy Associates, our conciliation services are led by experienced lawyers trained in:

  • Conducting joint and private sessions
  • Identifying core areas of dispute and overlap
  • Facilitating creative solutions without admitting liability
  • Drafting enforceable settlement terms as per Section 73 of the Act

We recommend conciliation in disputes involving:

  • Business Partnerships
  • Employer-Employee Conflicts
  • Real Estate and Tenancy Matters
  • Vendor and Service Provider Disputes
  • Family and Inheritance Conflicts with a commercial nature

Our lawyers act either as conciliators or advisors to parties involved in the process, always focused on resolution over confrontation.

Mediation Services

Mediation is a highly flexible dispute resolution method where a neutral third-party mediator facilitates dialogue and understanding between the parties. It encourages voluntary resolution and is particularly effective in preserving relationships.

We offer:

  • Pre-litigation Mediation: Ideal for preventing escalation to court or arbitration.
  • Court-referred Mediation: Representation and advisory for parties during High Court or District Court-referred mediation.
  • Commercial Mediation: Settlement of disputes between vendors, clients, and collaborators without disrupting business operations.

Our trained mediators and legal advisors help parties:

  • Communicate constructively and openly
  • Explore interests behind positions
  • Focus on long-term outcomes rather than blame
  • Document settlements clearly and enforceably

We have successfully mediated disputes involving banking, real estate, construction, partnerships, and family businesses.
