Rated "particularly highly" for our "incredibly good disputes work", we can offer our clients a top quality international dispute resolution service. We have the thorough grasp of other jurisdictions necessary to handle cross-border commercial disputes and, where there is scope for choice, we can also advise clients on which country's court system will be most favourable to them. Our lawyers are fluent in a wide range of languages and can often assist clients in their language of choice. In addition, we have established relationships with top class law firms globally, and can call on them to assist where appropriate.

As well as being "combative when required" and fighting hard for our clients, our practitioners are also recommended for their approach to resolving disputes in a cost-effective way by "always looking for a sensible negotiated solution" (Chambers UK Legal Guide). We have considerable experience of complex international arbitrations – including proceedings under LCIA, CIArb, LMAA and ICC rules – and frequently advise on drawing up arbitration agreements. Two of our partners are Fellows of the Chartered Institute of Arbitrators, and we are members of the London Court of International Arbitration.

In addition to the potential cost savings, arbitration has a number of other advantages, such as the way it can be adapted to different cultures and languages. Moreover, enforcing a successful arbitration award internationally is often easier than enforcing a court judgment, making it a quick and effective solution for many clients.
