Amany’s experience in these regions, coupled with her prior role at the ICC as Deputy Counsel at the Secretariat of the International Court of Arbitration, further strengthens Signature’s capabilities relating to ICC arbitrations, and follows the election in July 2024 of Partner Tsegaye Laurendeau as a member of the International Chamber of Commerce (ICC) Court for the 2024-2027 mandate.
Amany’s practice spans sectors such as energy, digital, telecoms, defence, construction, metallurgy all of which fit seamlessly with the experience of the broader arbitration team across Signature’s offices. Amany also acts as arbitrator (sole arbitrator and co-arbitrator) in ad hoc and ICC arbitrations. She speaks French, Arabic, German and English.
Commenting on Amany’s appointment, Paris arbitration partner Philip Dunham said: “We are delighted to welcome Amany to our team in Paris. She brings with her a wealth of insight and understanding of arbitrations, both procedurally and conceptually, from previous roles and her geographic and sectoral focus perfectly complements our combined practices across our offices.”
Amany commented: “Signature’s arbitration practice is well respected in the market and I look forward to joining my sector and geographical knowledge with theirs to further enhance our offering to clients globally.”
Signature comprises 25 partners and over 100 staff across its four offices in London, Paris, Frankfurt and Gibraltar.
