Shahin is part of a small community of attorneys that practice in international arbitration. His skill in handling cases under the UNCITRAL rules, or at ICC, ICSID, LCIA, SIAC, PCA, or ICDR is well known among this small community. As an arbitrator myself, I have personally been told by my colleagues that he is an excellent attorney to have appear before you. In this small community, that reputation is priceless. I endorse this lawyer.

I endorse this lawyer. I know him personally, and know that he is particularly good with oil and gas law. He is also very good with international law and has many years of experience practicing international law, from before he came to the U.S. He is also fluent in multiple languages and does his best to ensure that his clients are happy. I would be happy to have him represent me if I ever have a need for an attorney!
