Cross-Border Litigation

With the growing involvement of many companies in the international trade of goods and services, the number of cross-border disputes involving them also grows. In each such dispute one should take into account specifics of all jurisdictions involved in the proceedings, as well as of jurisdictions where ultimate court decisions and arbitral awards will be enforced.

This enables us to quickly put together a team that can pursue or defend claims before state courts and arbitral tribunals almost anywhere in the world (see details on arbitration here).
