Ousted Uber CEO Travis Kalanick has hired a new set of lawyers who are seeking to move the lawsuit brought by Benchmark Capital to arbitration instead of to a courtroom.

Kalanick will be represented in the Benchmark case by Potter Anderson & Corroon, according to documents filed Monday, and their attorneys Donald J. Wolfe Jr., Brad Davey and Matt Belger. Wolfe has substantial experience in corporate lawsuits that appear in the Court of Chancery in Delaware, where he is based; he represented National Amusements in the Viacom-Redstone case, along with Walmart as it battled allegations of bribery in Mexico.
