Nathalie Voser is a partner in our Dispute Resolution Group in Zurich, where she heads our International Arbitration team. Her practice is focused on international arbitration and litigation. She often acts as counsel before arbitral tribunals and as an arbitrator (co-arbitrator and chairperson). She also regularly advises clients involved in complex, multi-jurisdictional disputes.

Her areas of specialization include general contract law, tort law and restitution, private international law (conflict of laws), and international procedural law such as (pre-trial) attachment and recognition of foreign judgments and arbitral awards. She has special expertise in disputes relating to mergers and acquisitions and joint ventures, construction and civil engineering projects, international commodity sales and license agreements, and the development, manufacture, and sale of car components.

In 1988, Nathalie Voser graduated summa cum laude from the University of Basel and two years later was admitted to the bar in Switzerland. In 1992 she became a juris doctor with summa cum laude and earned an LL.M. from Columbia University (New York) in 1994 with honors.
