On March 7, 2022, the Armenian Bar Association’s Board of Governors elected New York-based Levon Golendukhin to fill an open seat on its Board.  Levon works in the International Dispute Resolution Practice Group of the global law firm of Eversheds Sutherland (US) LLP, where his  practice focuses on all aspects of international dispute resolution.  In particular, Levon specializes in the areas of investment treaty arbitration, public international law and cross-border  commercial disputes.  He counsels clients ranging from sovereign states to private companies in the mining, agricultural, civil infrastructure, industrials, energy and transportation sectors.  

From his student days at Columbia Law School to the present time, Levon has been an active member of the Armenian Bar.  As part of the Armenian Bar’s IP/IT Committee, he has worked on legal reform initiatives designed to help buttress the economy of the Republic of Armenia and, since the outbreak of the 2020 Artsakh War, he has co-chaired the Bar’s International Legal Initiatives Task Force.  In the latter capacity, Levon coordinates the Armenian Bar’s work in the international legal spheres of influence and engagement, aimed especially at the pursuit of justice arising from the aggression against Artsakh and Armenia and the ensuing humanitarian crisis. Outside of the Armenian Bar Association, Levon serves as Co-Chair of the International Investment and Development Committee of the American Bar Association.  Levon holds a JD from Columbia Law School (2016) and an LLM from the London School of Economics (2015).
