GESSEL recognised in the Lexology Index: Arbitration 2026

In the newest Lexology Index: Arbitration 2026 published on 20 November 2025 by Lexology in collaboration with Global Arbitration Review, Prof. Beata Gessel-Kalinowska vel Kalisz has been named among the global Thought Leaders – the highest distinction awarded to top-performing arbitration practitioners worldwide.

This category highlights individuals who, based on extensive international research covering thousands of firms and practitioners, are recognised for their exceptional expertise, consistent track record and influence on the development of cross-border dispute resolution.

Prof. Gessel-Kalinowska vel Kalisz’s inclusion in this group reinforces GESSEL’s standing as one of the leading arbitration practices in Central and Eastern Europe and reflects the firm’s long-standing commitment to complex international disputes.

For many years, GESSEL has actively forged new paths for the arbitration community, including as a co-organiser of the international conference Dispute Resolution in M&A Transactions, one of the key events dedicated to disputes arising in transactional contexts.

This recognition underscores the strength of our arbitration team and further solidifies GESSEL’s position in the field of international arbitration.
