About the LIAC-BBA

The Lebanese and International Arbitration Center of the Beirut Bar Association (LIAC-BBA) is an autonomous arbitration body of the Beirut Bar Association that provides arbitration and alternative dispute resolution services for resolving domestic and international disputes.

Although part of the organization of the Beirut Bar Association, the LIAC-BBA carries out its functions in complete independence from the Beirut Bar Association and its organs. It is governed by its internal regulations and performs its duties under the supervision of its own bodies.

The LIAC-BBA does not itself resolve disputes. It administers proceedings in accordance with its arbitration rules.

In addition, the LIAC may be designated as appointing authority without subjecting the arbitration to the LIAC rules.
