WHAT WE DO
Complex Litigation
We advise clients throughout the dispute resolution journey, starting with dispute resolution clause drafting and progressing through pre-proceeding matters and active proceedings, to the final stage of enforcing awards. We also counsel on alternative approaches to dispute resolution, including disputes boards and mediation, and help clients determine which dispute resolution method best suits their needs.
The Disputes We Handle
Our practice spans local, offshore and multi-jurisdictional disputes arising from joint ventures, M&A transactions, long-term supply and distribution arrangements, shareholder agreements, and foreign investment. Our complex litigation work spans the matters where the stakes, the structure or the subject matter demand more than a conventional litigation team:
Civil fraud, conspiracy and asset recovery. Claims involving deceit, breach of fiduciary duty, unlawful means conspiracy and misappropriated assets, often with urgent applications for freezing and disclosure relief and a tracing exercise running across borders.
Banking and financial products disputes. Litigation over derivatives, structured products, facility and security documents, mis-selling allegations, guarantees and events of default — disputes in which the documents are dense and the financial engineering matters.
Multi-party and group claims. Actions involving numerous claimants or defendants, joint ventures that have fractured into several fronts, and disputes where third parties, insurers and contribution claims multiply the procedural moving parts.
Shareholder, partnership and joint venture disputes. Deadlock, minority protection, exit and valuation battles, and unwinding arrangements where the parties remain locked together commercially while they litigate.
Technically heavy disputes. Construction, energy, technology and insolvency-related litigation in which the outcome turns on delay analysis, defects, valuation, forensic accounting or system failures — cases won by mastering the technical record, not just the law.
