Hogan Lovells maintains top-tier position in the GAR 30 for 2026
Hogan Lovells has once again been recognized among the world’s leading international arbitration practices, maintaining its 12th position in the 2026 Global Arbitration Review (GAR) 30 Power Index.
The GAR 30 is widely regarded as the most authoritative benchmark of international arbitration activity, assessing hundreds of firms globally based on the size, complexity and significance of their caseloads. Hogan Lovells’ continued placement at 12th underscores the strength, depth and consistency of its international arbitration practice, following a strong upward move into the Top 15 last year.
GAR notes that the firm’s 2026 metrics remain robust, supported by strong activity levels across its global platform, reflecting the practice’s sustained engagement in complex cross-border disputes.
Oliver Armas, Head of the International Arbitration practice, said:
“In addition to BigLaw, there has been a proliferation of high-end arbitration boutiques springing up in the market. There are well over a hundred, by recent count, and growing. To be recognized by GAR as being in the top dozen of those practices is a strong endorsement of the quality and resilience of our international arbitration practice. It reflects the continued confidence our clients place in us to handle their most significant disputes and the commitment of our global team to delivering consistently strong outcomes across markets and sectors.”
Hogan Lovells’ international arbitration practice spans key arbitral centres worldwide and is recognized for advising on high-stakes commercial and investor-state disputes across sectors including energy, infrastructure, financial services and technology.
