We have a proven track record in resolving such disputes on behalf of clients in sectors such as technology, financial services, telecoms, film and media, sport, leisure, pharmaceuticals, life sciences, energy, insurance, construction and engineering.
We are particularly well-known for our work in:
domestic commercial litigation;
domestic and international arbitration;
substantial multi-jurisdictional litigation;
civil fraud and asset tracing;
judicial review;
regulatory and governmental issues and disputes;
mediation and other forms of alternative dispute resolution; and
conducting investigations and independent enquiries.
Our lawyers are experienced in litigating in major courts and tribunals, both in the UK and overseas. Nationally we regularly act in the High Court, Court of Appeal and Supreme Court; in domestic arbitrations, and in other domestic tribunals, such as the Competition Appeal Tribunal (CAT). Overseas, our network of established relationships throughout Europe and the rest of the world means we are able to offer an effective global litigation service.
