Hexagon Advocates LLP is pleased to announce that Remy Gerbay has been recognized in Chambers and Partners’ Africa‑wide Dispute Resolution: Arbitrators Rankings. The ranking identifies a select group of twelve arbitrators who regularly sit in matters connected to the African continent.
Inclusion in this list reflects sustained engagement with complex, cross‑border disputes involving African jurisdictions, as well as peer and market recognition of arbitral experience, independence, and judgment. Remy Gerbay is honored to be listed alongside an exceptionally distinguished group of international arbitrators.
Over the past year, Remy Gerbay’s arbitral work has involved disputes connected to a range of African jurisdictions, including Equatorial Guinea, Rwanda, South Africa, Malawi, Mozambique, Zambia, and Mauritius.
The Chambers ranking also highlights a notable trend within the international arbitration community: a significant proportion of leading Africa‑focused arbitrators now operate as independents or from specialist boutique firms. This reflects a broader shift toward flexible, conflict‑light practices that emphasize independence, availability, and depth of expertise—principles that underpin Hexagon Advocates’ approach to dispute resolution.
The arbitrators recognized in this year’s ranking are:
- Carole Malinvaud (Gide Loyrette Nouel)
- Charles Kaplan (ASAFO & CO.)
- Gabrielle Kaufmann‑Kohler (LKK Arbitration)
- Mohamed S. Abdel Wahab (Zulficar & Partners)
- Raëd Fathallah (Bredin Prat)
- Dorothy Ufot (Dorothy Ufot & Co.)
- Funke Adekoya SAN (Independent Arbitrator)
- Laurent Jaeger (Jaeger Arbitration)
- Ndanga Kamau (Ndanga Kamau Law)
- Remy Gerbay (Hexagon Advocates LLP)
- Thomas Clay (Clay Arbitration)
- Yves Derains (Derains & Gharavi)
Hexagon Advocates congratulates all those recognized and remains committed to contributing to the development of high‑quality, independent international arbitration involving African parties, projects, and jurisdictions.
