They have a name in the market for their expertise handling high profile cases, usually with an international element. They are also well known for their work on long running domestic matters such as those that resulted from the 2008 economic crisis.
Their team have a wealth of knowledge in complex commercial litigation, asset tracing, freezing injunctions both defending and obtaining, multijurisdictional disputes, third party disclosures and "dawn raid" orders. They are also skilled in resolving disputes through neutral determinations and other forms of arbitration and mediation.
