Marily Paralika

I act as counsel in international arbitration proceedings governed by the ICC, ICSID, LCIA, SCC arbitration rules, as well as ad hoc proceedings.

I represent parties in the construction, engineering, energy and infrastructure sectors, both in commercial arbitrations and investor-state disputes, and assist with every step of the arbitral process, including pre-arbitral strategic advice.

I have handled arbitrations arising out of international commercial contracts, including long-term gas supply agreements and concession contracts, but also matters arising out of M&A and shareholders' agreements. I also act as an arbitrator in international arbitration proceedings.

I am a member of the ICC International Court of Arbitration for Greece and a member of the ICC Commission on Arbitration and ADR. 

I have authored numerous articles and publications in my field of expertise and am a regular speaker at conferences on international arbitration. I teach at the Faculty of Law of the University of Athens (Master of Civil Law and Energy).

I am recognized among my peers and clients for my exceptional expertise. Since 2017, I have been on the list of Future Leaders in the Who's Who Legal – Arbitration guide, which considers me to be outstanding in the field of international arbitration.

I hold a Master's degree in International Economic Law from the University Paris II Panthéon-Assas and an LLM in European and International Law from the University of Athens.

Prior to joining Fieldfisher Paris, I was a senior associate in the international arbitration group of White & Case in Paris, and a Deputy Counsel with the Secretariat of the ICC International Court of Arbitration, where I supervised numerous arbitration proceedings involving parties from all over the world.

I was admitted to the Athens Bar in 2001 and to the Paris Bar in 2007.

A native Greek speaker, I am also fluent in French and English.
