Dispute Resolution

Dispute resolution in this economic climate requires real imagination and speedy, cost-effective results.

We pride ourselves on a business focused approach which puts clients' strategic objectives at the heart of our thinking.  We recognise that effective dispute resolution involves much more than advising on the law.  We achieve results by being tactically astute and imaginative in our approach, and we work alongside clients to achieve results quickly and cost-effectively. 

We are recognised as a leading firm for dispute resolution by Chambers UK. Our team has a wealth of experience in handling complex High Court litigation, and we have an international network of lawyers to assist on any foreign law aspects of a case.  We also appear regularly before English and foreign arbitral bodies including LCIA, ICC, ICSID, AAA, LMAA and WIPO.

Not all disputes end up in court.  We frequently achieve confidential out-of-court settlements through the use of mediation or other forms of alternative dispute resolution.

We have specialist groups handling regulatory issues (including FSA) for financial institutions and individual regulated persons, as well as disputes in the natural resources sector.
